Hello, I’m trying to set up Windows 7 on my Lenovo laptop from 2019. I’m frustrated with Windows 10, but when I attempt to install Windows 7, the startup screen warns me about ACPI compliance issues and asks for an updated BIOS. Is there a way to resolve this by adjusting the boot drivers or other settings? I’m hoping for some guidance.

It won't function - the system can't run on Windows 7, there are no available drivers or firmware updates for it, and Windows 7 won't be able to identify anything. Simply put, Windows 10 is the only viable choice. That applies unless you're a specialist programmer capable of rebuilding the BIOS and all related software, drivers, utilities, and even parts of the OS.

Sure, it looks like you're considering staying on Windows 10.
