Acer Bios Recovery notebook dead after Brick / Update fail.

In this video, I show you how to recovery a dead Notebook Acer after BIOS K.O. or the update fails.

[@flexonbannsten8372]

Thank you very much for the Video. I tried it on an Acer Aspire 5 A515-45. I didn't have an insydeflash.exe, but a file like offth20...exe which I used. The update took around 5 minutes and the first boot after the update took around 30 sec, but it worked.

[@Kingtonino]

Please, tell me more, step by step

[@flexonbannsten8372]

@@Kingtonino I followed your steps 1-5 like you described. On step 6, I copied the files H2OFFT-Wx64.exe and ZAUL.fd to my USB stick. After that, I plugged the stick into my Aspire 5 A515-45(-R81U), pressed fn and esc and while holding that, turned my computer on. The fan started spinning around 15sec later, after around 5 minutes, the update finished and my computer shut down. I removed the stick and started it like always. It took around 30 seconds on the first start until I got a picture.

[@Kingtonino]

Alternative method from web: The Solution: Clearly, you require another functioning laptop to create the USB Crisis Disk. The following is what worked for me: 1. Plug in the USB stick (I was using an old 512 MB Mini Cruzer USB stick) 2. Select the Fast Format option and click Start. Then click Next. 3. Click Format and then Exit to complete the operation. 4. Download latest BIOS update from Acer website for your particular model (Acer Aspire 5349). In my case it was v.1.0.8 5. Extract the zip file. Go to folder called Windows and extract ZQR.fd from the ZQR_108W.exe file using Universal Extractor v1.6.1 or 7-Zip v9.20 6. Download the Phoenix/Insyde Tool v2.50. Unzip the file and run PhoenixTool.exe. Then in this program where it says "Original BIOS" load the ZQR.fd file to figure out whether you need to rename the ZQR.fd file to something else (ie. I have seen .BIN, .WPH and .ROM out there on the internet which can get super confusing!). In my case, the PhoenixTool.exe told me to leave my file name as ZQR.fd. This is your first file to copy over to the USB stick. 7. Then download WINCRISIS v.1.0.0.4. Unzip the files and copy the following files onto the USB stick: MINIDOS.SYS, PHLASH16.EXE, and BIOS.WPH To be clear and to recap, the only files that should be on your USB stick are: ZQR.fd, MINIDOS.SYS, PHLASH16.EXE, and BIOS.WPH. No other files or folders should be present. 8. Next, make sure your Acer Aspire 5349 laptop with the corrupted BIOS is powered off and unplugged (I had my laptop battery inserted). I inserted my USB in the left USB slot on the laptop (ie. I had 2 on the right also, not sure if it matters which one you use!) 9. Next, to cause the laptop to enter the BIOS Recovery Mode hold down the Fn + Esc keys and plug in the AC power. Continue holding the Fn + Esc keys and press the Power button. Continue holding the Fn + Esc keys for approximately 5 sec. The blue AC power light on the laptop should start blinking and the USB stick will light up which will hopefully indicate your BIOS is being recovered. The computer will reboot once and allow you to start using your laptop again! The recovery took about 2-3 min in my case.

I accidentally flashed a wrong bios firmware today, and my laptop's keyboard is not working. Unfortunately my external keyboard doesn't have Fn key :/

[@Kingtonino]

@@jilmerpadua7759 are you sure that your keyboard is K.O? Retry :) 🤞🏻

[@jilmerpadua7759]

I already fixed it, I noticed the Acer logo when I turned on the laptop, the bios firmware disabled the backlight of the monitor. I used flashlight to see the the display xD.

Damn it, I don't have the new Windows folder, only the exe file

You must extract the exe file

[@teodortodorov6974]

@@Kingtonino i extracted the file, but i have ding.wav, flshook.exe, flshookdll.dll, fwupdlcl.exe insydeflash.exe, iscflash.dll, iscflash.sys, iscflashx64.dll xerces-c_2_7.dll, what i need to do?

[@Kingtonino]

Linux Mint try to run the .exe file from another pc, when the pc gives you error, do not close the program, but go to C: / users / youraccount / appdata / local / temp, now find the temporary folder of the exe, inside it , there will be the .fd file

Hi, I'm having similar issues any any help will be a godsend My Acer Aspire 7 A715-75G-50SA got bricked and it's not POSTing or showing any acer logo/BIOS (it was at InsydeH2O Rev 5, v1.03). The best I get is a lit up keyboard and a power cycling. I have downloaded the BIOS updater from Acer support and have exctracted the exe, and I'm getting TWO .fd file. Any help will save me at this point

[@Kingtonino]

Are you sure that is not a hardware problem? Maybe a blown capacitor on the main board?
