 Hello,
 
I've installed Linux Mandrake on my Acer Extensa 502DX laptop and
 whenever my computer boots up, it crashes whenever it arrives at the
 Advanged Power Management section of the kernel,
 I've been able to use a kernel which doesn't have apm selected and it works
 fine.. Has anybody ever had this problem before?
 
 
 PS; I have enabled Advanced Power management in my BIOS  and still same
 problem.

You should compile your own kernel.  It has some options about APM that you
should enable or disable if your computer crashed at boot time.
