bootup switched to interrupt mode ???

I have been using Archlinux for a while without problems, however today when I started the machine it seemed to freeze (blank screen rather than the bootup info)  If I press the power key it then continues with normal bootup text displayed.  Then at a few times i have to press <ENTER> to get the steps to continue?

The boot log reads :

acpi: EC: non-query interrupt received, switching to interrupt mode

just as it stops for the first time, after pressing <POWER> it moves on

another note: when boot gets to Starting Hardware Abstraction Layer it displays [Busy].  If I press <ENTER> it then moves on again.

What seems to be wrong?

thanks
