If you are sure that machine supports ACPI, maybe this is your problem
(from the POSIX high res timer patch):
If you enable the ACPI pm timer and it cannot be found, it is
possible that your BIOS is not producing the ACPI table or
that your machine does not support ACPI. In the former case,
see "Default ACPI pm timer address". If the timer is not
found the boot will fail when trying to calibrate the 'delay'
loop.

config HIGH_RES_TIMER_ACPI_PM_ADD
int "Default ACPI pm timer address"
depends on HIGH_RES_TIMER_ACPI_PM
default 0

This option is available for use on systems where the BIOS
does not generate the ACPI tables if ACPI is not enabled. For
example some BIOSes will not generate the ACPI tables if APM
is enabled. The ACPI pm timer is still available but cannot
be found by the software. This option allows you to supply
the needed address. When the high resolution timers code
finds a valid ACPI pm timer address it reports it in the boot
messages log (look for lines that begin with
"High-res-timers:"). You can turn on the ACPI support in the
BIOS, boot the system and find this value. You can then enter
it at configure time. Both the report and the entry are in
decimal.
