Acer Aspire v3 772G Updating Bios using USB

[wsjam13]

I woulld like to update my acer aspire v3 + 772G from bios v1.13 to the latest Bios version 1.15 using Dos from a USB stick.?, rather than using the .exe file from windows to avoid any failed flash problem.
I have spoken to Acer support but they were not forthcoming how to do this.
I have downloaded file which is VA70V115.exe and have extracted all the files the
Bios appears to be isflash.fd file.

Could anybody who knows give me an Idiot guide of how to this to avoid any flash problems?
I intend to put in a Bios mod request once I have upgraded to this latest Bios.

Thanks for any help

Hi friend,
try this Recovery File :

http://rghost.net/57150387

This is v.1.15 follow the Recovery Procedure :

- Shutdown the netbook (notebook)
- Remove all peripheral devices
- Remove battery, Remove AC power cord
- Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds (battery and AC power still out), then release
- Put the USB Memory Stick in the USB port
- Hold "Fn" + "Esc" and plug the AC power cord in
- Now press the power button (whilst still holding Fn + Esc).
Wait until the fan will run, then release "Fn" + "Esc" keys
- The fan will run for about 2-10 minutes and the USB drive activity LED will blink
- I think the netbook rebooted automatically. If it doesn't, unplug the AC power cord once the fan has turned off

The bios should be updated with the modified BIOS, and boot as per normal.

Let me know
Regards

P.S. for the Mod Bios use this tool and upload result file :

Thanks for your reply BDMaster, the laptop is actually working ok I just want to upgrade to latest Bios first before requesting for yourself to mod Bios For me.
Can I use the recovery method to upgrade Bios first using the sflash.fd file.
