Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

You'll need a bios programmer to dump the bios chip, there is no other way. It can't be done by the "dumping tools for Windows 10 64".

.

The clean BIOS you used in post 52 can't be modified with my provided serial, snid, etc.?

Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

I thought BIOS_1.17_GH5XG.FD was the most recent BIOS backup. If it's not, how do I dump the BIOS w/o a EEPROM programmer? I never realized how locked down UEFI now is. I apologize for my noobness, but the BIOS FAQ is confusing as hell.

Can you point me toward dumping tools available for Windows 10 64? FreeDOS is a lost cause.

Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

That's not the original BIOS? The .FD file contained in the zip archive?

Or do you mean the bios contained in %temp% when you trigger the Insyde updater?

I can post that part here.

The original bios is the device's bios, it contains the DMI and Windows key of that device.

Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

The backup BIOS and new version needed for my laptop are contained in the same single .zip file above.

Here's the info I needed added:

System Manufacturer: Acer
Product Name: Nitro AN515-57
BIOS Version: V1.19

Product Serial Number: NHQEMAA0042380114B3400

SNID: 23800442734
UUID:
{E10C579A-BB34-ED11-80E7-088FC3787614}

Mainboard Serial#: NBQEM1100223791B6E3400

How do I flash the BIOS in Windows 10 x64? Unfortunately, all the DMI tools provided require DOS. This Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57 UEFI seems to block any 32-Bit (or lower) OS installations.

I tried NTDVM x64. It will load the programs in CMD, but fails to find the DMI structure table. FreeDOS won't load or get recognized. Windows 10 x86 gives a USB error immediately during or after POST. I hoped NTDVM on a 32 bit system would yield better results, but no dice.

Is flashing the BIOS EEPROM even possible through Windows 10 x64 using software tools? Or am I screwed by UEFI?

Thanks again to anyone who can help. Please forgive this triple post. I couldn't edit a previous to add this info.

I can only change the DMI if the original bios is available.

Hi HOACA388!

Here are my BIOS copies. I found v.1.17 in my Windows folder. The second is a copy from Acer. I DM'ed the Serial, SNID, and other information.

Without FreeDOS, is it possible to flash the EEPROM through Windows? Perhaps with tools similar to enabling the "hidden features"? Perhaps in a similar way to the "Acer BIOS Unlocker" tools offered here:

Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

I don't have the BIOS file for the original. Just the numbers/IDs copied. I can probably find a bin of the BIOS if that helps.

Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

Hello! I have a repaired Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57-51RC that recently returned from Acer. Unfortunately, the serial number, SNID, and Device Idea aren't the same. I know BIOS requests are the topic for this thread. Please accept my apologies for asking here.

I'd like to edit the BIOS back to my original numbers. Mainly to access my paid Windows 10 Pro and Office Product keys. I've seen the Acer tools to edit the BIOS, but this laptop will not boot from a Rufus created FreeDOS USB drive. I entered the BIOS, set the password so I could disable fast boot, enable the boot menu, and a few other recommended settings. Still won't boot from the FreeDOS USB drive.

Would anyone assist me in creating a bootable FreeDOS USB drive, adjust the needed BIOS settings, and use the Acer DNI tools?

Would it be easier to simply provide the numbers and flash the BIOS from software? Or do the tools here require an EEPROM writer for it?

I'd prefer trying to correct the SNID, Serials, and Device IDs through software if possible.

Thanks to everyone reading this. If I violated the thread rules, and you can point a more appropriate thread, I'd appreciate it. I apologize again if my post is inappropriate to the topic.

OK but where are your backup bios file ?

Re: Acer NITRO 5 -AN515-57 need a clean bios

What if I don't have a back-up because in all my life of flashing aftermarket data I never had a problem until I tried to unlock the most crippled gaming rig line in history with all its' fancy protections? What do I need to get my an515-57-919c a BIOS it can take? I'm thinking I corrupted the ME region or something, just get fans and heat with boot loop, USB wont detect either.
I was on v1.19 on a GH53G LA-L191P Rev1C. Can I upload the right .fd file and give some info like serials and such? Another thought, I used an EFI patcher so theoretically, could someone take my current dead BIOS (which I have to buy the tool to dump) and reverse the changes made as detailed in the patch config file?

Buy the tool,make a full bios dump then post it here.Post the serial number of the laptop as well,

Is there something wrong with you,can`t you read replies. Read post #63 .If you can`t find the serial number or the serial is missing SAY SO,if you don`t have a bios backup or can`t make a backup SAY SO.
