:I have the latest System-Bios on my Laptop, there is no newer version available.

:> maybe the bios needs to be mapped into a lower memory area?
:How could I do this ?
:
That has nothing to do with it. The confusion is over the kernel's
KVA representation of the BIOS. The BIOS sees a VM86 segment address,
not that high address. It should be just fine.
I looked in the mail archives and didn't see a 'trace' from the DDB
prompt. That's the first step... we need to identify where it is
crashing.
Then you need to test with and without ACPI, and if this is a SMP box
then with and without SMP.
