Hi, I had the same issue on my macbook, I came accross this link: 

http://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Error_message_on_boot:_Address_space_collision:_host_bridge_window_conflicts_with_Adaptor_ROM

Essentialy the fix is to append pci=nocrs to your kernel boot paramaters. It worked for me.

Comment 3 Bjorn Helgaas 2011-06-30 22:58:39 UTC
Using "pci=nocrs" is only a workaround and shouldn't be considered a fix.

The host bridge window conflict error message should not cause a functional problem and can be ignored.  I plan to reduce to a KERN_INFO message.

I don't see the "ACPI: resource piix4_smbus [io  0x0b00-0x0b07] conflicts
with ACPI region SMBI [io 0xb00-0xb0f]" message in the attached dmesg.  It's not related to the host bridge window message.
