Windows 10: ACPI BIOS Error - System Reverts to Restart Loop After Fresh Install of Windows 10 ver. 2004

Dell Inspiron 11-3147, BIOS ver. A12, Windows 10 installed. I tried all options to upgrade Windows 10 from version 1803 to 1903 and nothing worked. Since the notebook had no personal files on it, I decided to do a fresh install using the latest release ver. 2004 and install from a USB. I created the ISO on a USB and successfully installed Windows 10 ver. 2004. However, within a few minutes, the computer crashes and the screen message states it needs to restart. The error shown is "ACPI BIOS Error".


I am not sure if this issue is being caused by a Windows problem or a corrupted BIOS. I have successfully installed Windows 10 at least three times now. Each time the system crashes after a few minutes and remains in the restart loop unless I turn it off and then enter the Setup Menu or the F12 boot menu. If I allow the system to restart, it reverts to the Windows Installation repair options. If I enter the F12 menu and choose to boot from the USB ISO, I can do a fresh install of Windows, but it crashes soon after installation.


Can anyone suggest a solution?

ACPI Bios Error

A friend of mine built his first computer and iv been called in to figure out what in the world this problem hes having is. Iv tried quite a lot already, ill list those out in a second. He never got past trying to install windows 10 due to the ACPI BIOS
ERROR.

System spec:

AMD Ryzen 5 2600x CPU

ASUS Prime B450M-A Mother Board

Strix GTX1050ti GPU

Ballistix DDR4 2600 RAM

a 2Tb Western Digital HDD

Behavior on boot attempt: The computer starts up fine, gets to the ASUS logo screen and then BSODs with the ACPI BIOS ERROR.

I have tried:

updating the BIOS

clearing the CMOS

tried installing Win7 same Error

Installing Win10 on the HDD outside the system.

Using Rufus to make a bootable USB from the ISO files

CSM, Secure boot, Fast boot, all OFF/ON in every variation

SATA switch to RAID from AHCI

IV tested all the hardware plus gotten Linux to run fine.

After all that the only change is that now it tries to boot into the automatic repair after the first 2 BSODs but the moment it tries to load its just BSODs with the same ACPI BIOS ERROR.

Not gonna lie im pretty stumped on this one, best guess is its a windows 10 problem somewhere. Judging from google i'm not expecting an easy one click solution but any help would be appreciated.
