[REQUEST] Acer Aspire V3-471(G) & E1-471(G) BIOS Unlock and Update to UEFI

[BDMaster]

Hi,

Pls help me update my Acer Aspire V3-471G from legacy bios to UEFI. I am planning to install Mac OSX on this laptop.

The InsydeFlash utility keeps giving me the following warning when I run the flashing app.

"Not allow to flash secure BIOS on current platform"

I'm currently on bios v1.29 ID: ZQS and the computer is running windows 8.1.


Thanks.

Daniel

My laptop information

-Model : Acer Aspire V3-471G with Intel Core i7-3610QM
-BIOS : InsydeH2O ver 2.18 (UEFI)

Can you mod this bios to disable secure boot and unlock all menu?
Thanks for your help.

I attached result.rar from my backup bios ver 2.18 using NEW_BACKUP_FPTs.exe program.

Ok, now i have successfully flash modded bios.
Just rename bios.bin to ZQS.FD from my pendrive then shutdown my laptop after that hold down the FN and ESC key, insert the ac power, the power button after pressing the power, to immediately release the three keys at the same time then the laptop will be flashing bios image.

Advance and power menu now has been unlocked.
Uefi secure boot option still not changeable, see attachment photo.

Can you mod the bios to disable secure boot or make it changeable?
I added new result.rar on attachment.

Thanks BDMaster
