strange because R02-B3 is a more recent one than R01-A1 so you wouldnt think you would have any issues :S

Hello I am currently on an Acer Aspire M5100 desktop. I ran regedit and found the following information regarding my BIOS.

System BIOS version: acrsys - 42302e31 Phoenix - AwardBIOS v6.00PG - AwardBIOS v6.00PG
System BIOS date: 04/16/07
And could my motherboard be an AMD690G chipset? (I have a AMD Athlon 64 x2 processor (currently running Win7 x86 installation))

I apologize if I misplaced this and misinformed you. I am completely new to bios mod and only need this as I want to be able to run Xcode on Mac OS X thru VMware. I need to be able to turn hardware virtualization seeing that VMware tells me it is deactivated in bios. Not surprising there is no option to activate/deactivate HW virtualization.
I was unable to locate a link to the original BIOS file.

I found this site after some googling and this blogg post: http://frishit.com/2010/04/trinity-acer-...s-modders/

Thank you for any help or feedback.

Please use http://dl.dropbox.com/u/747181/Universal...Backup.EXE to generate a BIOS Backup as Acer dont have any available on their site!

It's been a while, and I figured I would ping back, to see what is the current way to upgrade this bios without bricking it..

If I had the money to buy a new computer, I would, but this market sucks right now..

Le-help?

Could someone please unlock this one? All info i have is as follows...Motherboard ID F690GVM....SMBIOS Ver. 2.4....Phoenix-AwardBIOS v. 6.00PC or PG not sure on that.. RS690-SB600-6A009FKZC-00.. Thank You..

i can safely say this does not work with the Acer Aspire M1100-U1402A

I was wondering if anyone could take the time and see if unlocking this bios was possible? It would be greatly appreciated. Also, tell me if the bios i attach is the correct size - i used "Universal BIOS Backup ToolKit 2.0" and let it default to 512KB.

I'm looking for the previously unlocked BIOS: "Acer Aspire M1100 R02-B3 Virtualization And OC By 1234s282"
but the Dropbox link is dead.

The original unlock request forum page is here: https://www.bios-mods.com/forum/Thread-A...pire-M1100
