Excerpt from KB 314830 [1]:

(0x00000003, Parameter2, Parameter3, Parameter4):

This error is defined as "ACPI failed must succeed method."
This error occurs if ACPI cannot build a control method to
reference the ACPI namespace. Other arguments for this error
reference the ACPI object that was being run and the name of
the control method. One greatly simplified explanation (which
might not be completely accurate) is that the system cannot
find a way to get to the ACPI tables that define the Plug and
Play and Power Management capabilities of the system.
