Can you help?

Laptop is giving regular system error message, which constantly repeats =
itself very rapidly when it occurs!

\Device\ACPIEC: the embedded controller (EC) hardware didn't respond in =
timeout period.  This may indicate an error in EC hardware or firmware =
or possibly poorly designed BIOS which access EC in unsafe manner.  The =
EC driver will retry the failed transaction if possible.

This is happening on an Acer Laptop purchased six months ago - running =
Windows XP

How do I solve this problem!!??

Thankyou
