So go there and let me know if it works and upload some screen shots, please
as I cannot see nothing from my side and would to check my work,

if you didn't have upgraded your laptop at version 2.17 yet, You ahve to do it first then Flash the mod !
I have ralized 1st version Menu Tabs Unlock Bios v. 2.17 for Acer Aspire M3-581T / TG
It will have 2 new Tabs :
You have to clone an USB stick using tool attached (USB Prep) It will create an
Dos Bootable USB Stick with bios into, so use Recovery method to flash eeprom :
Turned off pc press Esc + Fn and then hit power button, wait 3 - 4 min until pc turns itself off and got flashing bios.

Thaanks! But how I upgrade to 2.17 before install the mod? The oficial bios update to 2.17 says: "Please update to the same type of BIOS (v1.x)" I've the v1.02
Hi friend,
officialy It's not possible to Upgrade from 1.x to 2.x or Downgrade from 2.x to 1.x and many times Laptop are sold DosFree so not Updatable !
Only way to bypass this lock is Recovery Mode !
- Performing the emergency flash:
- Shutdown the netbook (notebook)
- Remove all peripheral devices
- Remove battery, Remove AC power cord
- Press and hold the power button for 10 seconds (battery and AC power still out), then release
- Put the USB Memory Stick in the USB port
- Hold "Fn" + "Esc" and plug the AC power cord in
- Now press the power button (whilst still holding Fn + Esc).
Wait until the fan will run, then release "Fn" + "Esc" keys
- The fan will run for about 2-10 minutes and the USB drive activity LED will blink
- I think the netbook rebooted automatically. If it doesn't, unplug the AC power cord once the fan has turned off
The bios should be updated with the modified BIOS, and boot as per normal.
So It's not necesessary and Impossible to Update before !!! only way to use Recovery Mode !!!

Sorry for the necro, but I recently acquired an M3, updated to the UEFI 2.17 bios and would wish to unlock its features ;
Anyway you could provide the file again?
