before and after installing xp on an amd athlon 2,2ghz, 1gb
ram

one of the first messages at bootup is:

'not enough space in runtime area!! smbios data will not be
available. press f1 to continue.'

After this, it boots up normally. Google isn't helping me
:(

any ideas what this means and how to solve it?

Never seen that message before, sorry. Have you noticed any
particular features of XP that have stopped functioning?
Perhaps XP's drivers are correcting the issue. Anyway, sorry
I can't be more helpful.

I first saw this message before xp was even installed. OS is
running perfectly so far.

After searching, found this:
- This message is displayed when the size of the SMBIOS data
exceeds the available SMBIOS runtime storage size.
- This indicates that the SMBIOS event log is full, then
BIOS stops logging events to the SMBIOS event log. The
SMBIOS event log can be cleared in BIOS Setup under the
SMBIOS Event Log menu...

I just copy/pasted that; don't ask me what it means.
