Acer aspire E1-521-0694 bios flash failure

My son tried to update the bios of the acer aspire E1-521-0694 but something went wrong. Now, the laptop wouldn't boot but give a black screen and doesn't do anything.

I tried several restarts and the LCD came, but just a black screen

It looks like a BIOS problem for me

What can we do?

If it does not start after a black screen, most likely the system needs repairs. We suggest to contact technical support in your region for further assistance in this matter.

  • Acer aspire 5552. Battery / bios update

    I have an Acer Aspire 5552on whose battery is a failure. I bought a new battery, but the laptop will not recognize the new battery. The provider says my bios needs updating. My bios is acer v2.05 17/11/2010. Downloads of the bios on the website do not include v2.05. where can I find this update of the bios?

    I am sure the sellers claim. Some batteries cheap may not be recognized by the laptop. I got lucky with AGPtek, PWR + and Anker.

    If you want to upgrade the Bios, I would go to the most recent. Make sure your battery is fully charged, maintain the power of the connected, read everything carefully, because you will.

  • Acer Aspire V3 772 G BIOS grayed out

    Hello
    I have a laptop Acer Aspire V3 (model G 772-9643), Acer sent me the recovery disks for. The first two steps they registered on the included sheet was to insert the disc labeled "System drive", then reboot and press F12 to get into the boot menu.

    When F12 has not worked for me, I went into the BIOS with F2 and discovered that F12 Boot has been disabled. I tried to go down with the arrow, but couldn't. All the options are greyed out, even on the other sections in the menu of the BIOS. Time and date system were virtually the only things not greyed out. Until I have enable F12 I can not change the order of boot on CD/DVD and cannot start the process of recovery with Acer discs, so I'm completely stuck now.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated, it's urgent because I really need this laptop for the school that has already started. The laptop is very expensive, it is important that I try to repair rather than buy a new one.

    Thanks in advance for any help

    If you already save and exit the BIOS, enter the BIOS again and check if the options are still grayed out.

    Thank you.

    I found no InsydeFlash for linux, so I flash with Hiren's BootCD with windows XP of the Mini. BIOS has been on a USB flash drive, because the hard drives were not detected.

  • Acer Aspire v3 - 551 Advanced Bios

    Hi, I need activate virtualization on my Aspire v3-551 runs the update of the Bios 2.14

    I would also like to know if there is anyway (inside the bios) to increase my fan speed?

    Thanks for any help

    Run this detector to determine if your laptop is capable and enabled:

    http://go.Microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=163321

    If so, you should see this:

    It is the result of my M5-581TG. I don't have any BIOS entry for virtualization. I think that, on capable machines, this will be enabled by default as is the case on my M5.

    According to me, the table of temperature/speed of the fan is wired in the BIOS and cannot be changed.

  • Acer Aspire E5 - 521 AMD 1.8 GHz Turbo 2.4 GHz seems slow when it should speed up

    I have updated the laptop to Windows Home 10.  I noticed that the speed of the CPU drops to 1.7 GHz .99GHz whenever applications run.  However, when you are sitting idle, it will accelerate up to almost 2.4 GHz (what?).  I noticed when editing a video clip.  I know that this is not a unit of video editing, but he can do light edition of little video clips.  CPU has dropped to as little as .99GHz for rendering and never got higher than 1.6 - 7GHz. Then I noticed that it does this on all the tasks that I run, using Windows Media Player, surf the web, install software, copy files, etc.  What gives?  CPU cycles to the top when I stop doing anything and just look at the performance of the processor.  It's a Quad AMD6, not a high-speed CPU but it should do with the turbo function, better cause when I do my editing, it is difficult to swallow this pill that he not gases upward but throttles down and little import if it is plugged or current alternative.  Time remain somewhere between 41 - 53 c.

    I followed your advice and contacted the Acer Support.  I was told that it was in my power settings.  I had to choose the advanced option under the edit window Plan and in the drop-down list choose High Performance settings.  REP said this should solve the problem.  So I'll try that. So unless this does not work for some reason, I guess it's a closed question.

  • Acer Aspire E5-521-85EX does support up to 3 or 6 Gbit/s transfer rate for HARD drive?

  • Old Acer Aspire 5538 BIOS Flash?

    I got an Acer Aspire 5538 for quite a while, my mother got to me as a gift. Recently, however, I was playing some good old Halo: THIS when the screen went black. He was still, was not showing anything. He had this whole "glow" you would see if a screen was turned on, but does not display anything. I thought, oh maybe that I was fired for a reason, and the game somehow crashed. I restarted the computer and it starts normally. I decided to play Halo 2, the Collection Master Chief being days of release. The screen is the same question as before, thought itself, well, "just won't work today...". Well. ill just it reboot and play some Xbox 360 ". Sfter that last stop, the computer has been seriously f * ked up. The POST screen wouldn't show it at all, no beeps (unless low battery, battery has been useless for years), nothing. The screen never even turned on at all. The fans were running thin, hard drive worked, CD player was fine. Just nothing put into service. never. Ive had this problem for several weeks now, and ive tried and failed the following:

    -Connect external monitor

    -put the new BIOS files on USB, now Fn + ESC key during power (USB drive does not receive any current until Windows is upward)

    -with the help of other hard drives

    -removal of RAM, HARD drive, battery, etc. for 5 minutes, then re - insert and tries to start.

    -put the files of the BIOS on a blank CD and insert it in the computer during startup

    All the things above have failed, I looked for a tutorial on how to Flash the BIOS, but found nothing. I can't send in for repair, the warranty has expired, and there is no recipt (because it was a GIFT). I guess that the LCD screen was messed up, but when I was just trying to power on & power off the unit for signs of life, once the screen actually came. The hard drive and RAM were both, so I had to stop and put back them in. The unit showed no sign of life other than fully sensitive TouchPad disabler, power button, fans spinning, HDD from hum, etc. There has been no beeps, except when the battery is low.

    Please, someone tell me. What is the problem with my laptop?

    I also can't afford a new one, so please do not suggest that.

  • The Acer Aspire BIOS recovery procedure

    I ran BIOS update program accidentally in my Acer Aspire desktop on windows 10 PC, the program began suddenly and run in the DOS window, then it crashes before finishing, don't know what stage was when crashed on the BSOD, which needed PC to restart to the no reboot No Acer logo, black screen and PC beeps a long short beeps, tried to boot from USB but as long as the screen is black, I can't do anything, only to become recurring beeps.

    You don't know how to recover the BIOS, if someone had this problem with the BIOS and manage to recover the BIOS, I very much appreciate their help on what to do.

    Thank you

    Hi, thanks for the information and the link that I found very useful and informative, to find the good BIOS I couldn't find the option to select the operating system, the operating system is required to download the drivers only. I don't know how to deal with that and if the OS is or is not required when BIOS downloding.

    I also found some information in the user manual on the version of the BIOS and how to recover the BIOS on page 25 failure, but it is unclear what BIOS to use the original during the expedition or the latest version or the other between two release dates?

    What is meant by the wrong BIOS is specific, bad model, or an incorrect date?

    Thank you.

    I look forward to hear from you.

  • Updating BIOS for Acer Aspire 3000 / battery problems

    So I had a couple of Acer Aspire 3000 who were not working and got one to work...

    But it seems that I am having some problems when the battery is in it - and otherwise fine without him.
    Excessively long Shut Downs that go to the continuous reboots / Touchpad problems, gel, etc.

    Says the battery until it goes to @ 7-8%.  Then the battery does not charge.

    When the power adapter is disconnected - the battery is charge?

    Given that these laptops have been sitting around for a couple / few years... and have been given to me... I do not deny the possibility that the battery is not good. And there was only 1 battery using 2 laptops.

    After that she has charged at 7-8% - I unplugged it the adapter - and it ran for @ 20 min.  and said: '1 HR 30 min remaining"until she was cut.

    I also tried tried the - remove battery unplug adapter and hold the power button for 2 min method - then installed battery and adapter - but nothing helped...

    (On a side - note, which is probably not related - my wifi doesn't seem to be working - even though it appears, it does nothing wrong in. Device Manager - and runs a diagnosis does not help...) I know there are wireless networks but none does not appear! Broadcom 802. 11 g)

    In any case - I saw a post on a different site-say an UPDATE of the BIOS could possibly solve the problem of battery - (wifi may be too)...

    Given that I've NEVER DONE an UPDATE to BIOS; I'll ask NICELY, please walk me but this... with as little as ACKRONYNS and GEEK TALK as Possible (respectfully).  I had heard of this sort of thing - to download the update of the Bios... and I think it can be put on a Falsh player - but is a ZIP and should she be EXTACTED - which I'm not too big? Then "Select (something)? and then maybe restart... So now, I'm willing to give it a try - with some help and input.  THANKING YOU IN ADVANCE!  a link for the download and the proper BIOS UPDATE would be a big departure... - I guesss that goes without saying.

    So, here are some features of the information system: (I hope there enough, but please let me know if you need more)

    3 to 32 of the latest BIOS availabel
