What is the kernel version being used ?

See this bug as a possible refrence:

Don't know anything about the system. But if it is dual core try acpi=off & apic=off and see what happens.

You want acpi on so it's either an older kernel issue or the embedded control has something wrong and needs an update to fix it.
