Hello, what do you mean?

Your thread has been merged with another existing thread topic. Anyway, what do you mean by "corrupted the BIOS!" ,If the chip is not physically damaged and you can read anything from it post your corrupt bios here in a zip or rar attachment.

Hello,
I need the clean bios for my acer AN515-57.
Here are the details
Model: AN515-57-58LR

Serial number: NHQENST00214706B1F3400

SNID: 14702742334

Motherboard model: GH51G LA-L181P Rev 1C

Bios Chip: xmc qh128ahig

I have attached 4 bios dumps which i read from original bios. 2 of them i took via CH341A programmer and 2 from AS programmer. Which ever you see you good you can fix that please. I am really noob. so i don't know much.

The Problem, I attached the Egpu to my laptop via M.2 it was working fine. Chat GPT said i have to enable IMR configuration in advanced bios and set to SA PCIe and increase the aperture size to 1024 mb to get the best performance. i did save the setting but then my laptop just keyboard lights coming on and no display or anything. i tried CMOS and Crisis recovery but nothing worked. then i searched and bought ch341a programmer device and made bios backups and told Chatgpt to reset my bios to default and i flashed the new file. now the keyboard lights are also not coming on. just the power led turn on for few sec then turns off. no fan, no life, nothing.

Please help. Thank you

I am sorry for requesting again, but the bios i got is still not working. my laptop still not working.

I researched about it a lot and found out the ME region, firmware descriptor region, NVRAM are corrupted in original dump. For that reason, i have attached a Bios from Acer website in fd file and all the backup dumps that i took.

Can anyone please use those files and give me a flashable bin file via Ch341a programmer.

The files I gave are all extracted from .exe . If it doesn't work for you then you have a hardware problem.

Hi master, I am here with same problem, as many of us.
Another service replaced PCH and probably reflashed BIOS as well (soldering stains on BIOS chip) and now NVMe not visible.
My unit is:
AN515-57-57EB,
Model N20C1,
SNID: 2111804534
S/N: NHQELEC0032111CD1D3400
Motherboard model: GH51G LA-L181P Rev 1C
SRKMA PCH
Intel Core i5-11400H (2,70-4,50GHz) (BNCH-16099b)

• 15,6" FHD 1920x1080px Matný IPS 144Hz LED
• 8GB DDR4 3200MHz
• M.2 PCIe SSD 512GB
• nVidia GeForce RTX 3050 4GB GDDR6

I tried to clean ME region, and now have no display at all.
If I flash back original file, unit wont start at all, tried to extract KBC file, reflashed but the same.
Can you help me with clean ME please or better rebuild completely new BIOS (I will extract KBC and flash both)
Thank you

Then you have an unresolved hardware problem.

[hopkok]

EDIT: I cleaned BIOS once again, and getting same Amprere reading as your bioses, you are right, there is another hardware failure...thank for help

Apparently some drivers aren't working, they don't even appear in Device Manager. What can I do about the Type-C headphones?

Did you install all the drivers from Acer support, IO, chipset etc.

Did you install all the drivers from Acer support, IO, chipset etc.

I had already updated the drivers in the past and after flashing the BIOS I didn't detect any missing or outdated drivers. I tried reinstalling the video and audio drivers but to no avail.

I need someone to put the ME Regions in a clean BIOS file, I have a corrupt dump file. Thanks
