Are you running securelevel>1?

Try completely disabling APM on BIOS. I mean *completely*, as in
*all* options. There are some BIOS in which APM will *not* be
completely disabled unless you disable *all* options related to it,
no matter what the fields description would led you to believe.

Alternatively, try using a kernel with APM.
