[HELP] v3-571-6850 Acer Aspire BIOS CHIP Location?
#1
Exclamation 
Hello everyone,

Long story short: I've messed up hard. I usb flashed to unlock the bios (from this site - worked perfectly). I then played with the graphic settings in the bios... yep - bricked. Extremely stupid of me.
I've also just purchased a ram upgrade of 16gb ddr3 - that's why I thought I could up the graphic memory. Didn't know acer is a jerk and this would happen. Now I either buy a new motherboard for 229$ here: 
https://laptopparts.ca/products/new-genu...h-la-7912p 

OR fix it - I want to fix it.

Tried the flash usb - flash this flash that. No luck.

I know that there's a bios chip flash service on this site. Now I need to know... where do I locate the sucker? 

I've already carefully and properly disassembled my laptop - attached some photos:
   

Model (Sorry kind of blurry):
   

Please help me; I'm a poor student and I've just spend an arm and a leg on my new ram. I don't want it to go to waste.  Confused

This motherboard has two chips for BIOS: one (labelled U36) for ME region, other (U42) - for BIOS region.
U36 is located under WiFi, U42 - on other side of motherboard near ee chip
