[Unlocked] Acer S3-391

[BDMaster]

I'll post some screen shots as soon as I'm home. In the bios screen it just says Rev 3.7,and not your name. I have noticed in other forums people talking about a modified InsydeFlash tool. Donovan6000 even talks about modding it on his blog, but Im having trouble finding the file to download.

I know very well it as He is the Best Friend of mine (I learned from him) and He was trying to hack Insyde Secure Flash, but so far not realized yet, but He is very nearly to get.
So We have only two ways to reflash bios back :

1. Intel FPT Tool only for Intel CPU (error 28 or 280 are troubles)
2. Recovery Mode

If none of these two is working We have a problem and It can be solved only by
a SPI External Programmer to rewrite Eeprom !

I uploaded here Bios v.1.29 Original for Recovery Procedure, It means downgrade to 1.xx version, but if it works
We can upgrade to v. 2.14 modded too and v.1.29 modded is ready too (Sovem working), only problem will be UEFI for win8 :

1.xx is Hybrid EFI - MBR - Win7
2.xx is UEFI - GPT - Win8

Let me know

I'm scared to try and flash 1.29 my laptop came with windows 8 and bios 2.0x. So if the bios magically flashes then Im afraid it wont boot back into the OS to do anything.
