I had updated my computer BIOS from F.20 to F.21. Since then I am getting some errors. Specially event 4 and 5. Now only event 13 is showing –
Error : Event 13, ACPI
The embedded controller (EC) did not respond within the specified timeout period. These indicate that there is an error in the EC hardware or firmware or that the BIOS are accessing the EC incorrectly. You should check with your computer manufacture for upgraded BIOS. In some situation, this error may cause the computer to function incorrectly.

This is the second time I’ve seen this post with the same kind of problem. But anyway, since this problem originated after you updated your CPU’s BIOS, try downloading another version of its BIOS. It would be better if you can find the latest version of your computer’s BIOS and hope that it can fix the problem. After downloading the file, scan it first with your antivirus then open it afterwards to upgrade your CPU’s BIOS again. Restart your machine after the upgrade and see if it works.

If you still see another error when checking the system with Windows, try installing the original version of your computer’s BIOS. I’m really not sure if this will work since your CPU is already running on a much newer version of the BIOS.
