1# Testing ACPI changes under Windows 2 3When testing ACPI changes in coreboot against Windows 8 or newer, beware that 4during a normal boot after a clean shutdown, Windows will use the fast startup 5mechanism which results in it not evaluating the changed ACPI code but instead 6using some cached version which won't include the changes that were supposed to 7be tested. In order for Windows to actually use the new ACPI tables, either 8disable the fast startup or just tell Windows to do a reboot which will make it 9read and use the ACPI tables in memory instead of an outdated cached version. 10
