PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 7 of bridge 0000:00:1c.0
PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 8 of bridge 0000:00:1c.0

I have the same prob in early LinuxMint - from 2.1 to 4 version. Now it disappers! (in Mint). Mint 6 have 2.6.27 kernel. May be newer kernel fix bug?

It's not a serious error, you don't need to be worried.
I believe it means the BIOS falsely claims that a region of ram can be used when it in reality can't.

A newer kernel might just skip the check on your chipset, thus removing the message.

may be newer kernel will be fixing it...
