How does "acpi=off" 'help'?  What does using failsafe output?  DId you try other power options?

SMP support is built into the kernel.  Maybe it's the dual-core thing that's not detected, or something else that disables it.

Afaik, other laptop users have gotten that "Bad EIP value" error due to different screen dimensions - maybe try different ones for vga=### (press F2/F3 or see wiki for more info).
