    🤯 Acer Predator Helios 300 (pH315-54-760s)

    Hi there all, 1st post here. I wasn't aware there were guys out there doing this for people! (how, well I haven't a clue lol but 😎👍 badass!), So when I found y'all, I was happy, but not too happy quite yet - although my issue seems to be less severe than many I've seen here who have been happily helped, so there's that.

    I'm a software dev of over 20 years and just recently have gotten into the hardware side of things plus other electronics like Rpi and Arduino. Started off a vid game hacker yada yada, same story. Lol.

    Now, the BIG OL' issue ruining me little life:

    PH315-54-760S RTX 3060 mobile (modded "Advanced Settings" unlock for bios v1.15)

    So, guys, what I've done, and I'm not sure the depth of knowledge anyone has about this specific laptop's bios, but if no luck that's how it goes I get it as it's probably not that well known, I really don't know though. But I was able to use a powershell script to fully unlock it's many many many "Advanced Settings", and of course, because I can't keep my grimey hands off of tweaking, more tweaking, always adjusting shit! Stop it! (Fine!). Yikes...

    Anyway, what I did was seemingly benign but it's the first time I haven't been able to recover it (I've messed it up several times in the past..I'm done with that after this doozy.) but what I did was change one little memory (ram), setting in which I can not name, but it didn't seem that important (apparently was), and now I just get a black screen when booting. Now, I haven't a clue how someone could somehow provide me a working bios for my machine with key etc, but if this is something one can do for me, I can and will certainly show my appreciation financially - what does something like this run someone if possible? If not I get it, anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks guys!


    Now, I hope I'm following the rules correctly, if not please correct me, and I shall adhere.

    Everything at this forum is free. Do you have an SPI programmer

      Hi SMDFlea! Sorry for the gap in time, life started tossin me bags of turds.

      So anyhay, I see you're the man (or woman..) around here so thank you, I appreciate your time!

      Yes I do, I believe, about the SPI programmer. Are we talking the ch340 yada yada? (I could be conflating my 3D printer bios equipment, certainly could use the same thing tho)

      And, I have a question about my bios and ph315-54 predator hellos 300. While I do have my exact modded bios's stuff still on one of my nvme drives (I know I know), which would take a process to extract but can be done, I would love it if I didn't have to eff with all that, SMDFlea.

      Thanks for your time and support once again sir or ma'am, 🙏. I'll be here!

        Calling SMDFlea, calling SMDFlea! Ba ba ba bump! I've got everything required EXCEPT the bios file I need. This is where you come in my man, if you're here, willing & capable that is. I still haven't a clue what magic goes into someone creating a proper bios for another, but I'm willing to support whoever feels brave enough! Thanks guys, I'll be here waiting!

          Post a bios backup, either using the CH341A to backup the bios chip or post the one on your SSD drive. Doesn`t matter which one, but you`ll still need the CH341A to program the new bios back. The bios region will be replaced,and that will get it back to default settings, plus we can transfer the DMI (windows key, serial number if any) to the new bios region.

            Thanks for replying SMDFlea! I was so freaking scared you were going to say that. F**k!! Is there ANY chance whatsoever of proceeding without the backup? I'm positive I have an unlocked version of 1.15. I'm doing everything technical with my two flagship Androids - which gets REALLY tedious and REALLY annoying quick. I do have a bare & old core duo tower I could maybe revive but eeek man.....

            See, now I have that damned feeling in my stomach again - the type one gets upon hearing about a death in the family. 😔

            I'm a software dev & electronics tinkerer & am technically proficient and adept, but THIS, this right here...is just something that I want to touch as least as possible ya know?

            Again, I'm not asking anyone to do this for free, I will $ support you as this would help me SO much I just can't see NOT supporting them! (I know I know there's no cost)

              Luckily for you this model ACER provides full bios file.

                Wwwhhooaaa... hoaca388!? Thank you bro, wow. I didn't know multiple individuals are here - heroing out! Holy balls dude, really!?! I'm a yearling when it comes to this as there's just way too many subjects to be expert level in, so I DONT mean any disrespect when I say these things - such as is this really what it looks like?!! And at that....WTF, over!? I've not been aware that YOU can successfully create MY bios. Where've I been wtf....🤯

                Hoaca388, admittedly, I'm ridiculously scared to use it (please please, no disrespect conveyed here at all, I'm so thrilled right now. it's just my only expensive machine and ay ye ye ya know, please try to understand my friend!

                Anyway, would it be possible to say a little something about it or to me brother? Just anything that may offer some confidence etc. And, if there's private messages I'll PM you to get your info $$!! A PREMATURE THANK YOU!!! This is flippin shit dude!
