Hello,
I have an Aspire V3-571 laptop currently running bios 1.13
Problem is I want to install windows 10 on this laptop in UEFI mode (I'm upgrading the wireless card, memory and HDD to an SSD as well), . Apparently to do this the bios has to be upgraded from 1.x to 2.x (current version is 2.21) but Acer has locked down the version I have of the Aspire V3-571 to only accept bios 1.13.
I was reading elsewhere that this can be unlocked or accept modified bios file to fix this problem.
Current bios 1.13 (not sure if these links are gonna work)

Bios i would like to be able to upgrade to 2.21

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
