It's a Phoenix Ami APTIO Bios, You can try using recovery Mode for Phoenix Bios :

EFI / Insyde BIOS
Recovery filenames are:

P01-A3.ROM

Pubkey found in 996AA1E0-1E8C-4F36-B519-A170A206FC14_618.ROM at 0
Marker found in 69009842-63F2-43DB-964B-EFAD1C39EC85_612.ROM at 0
'SLIC' string found in 4C494E55-5849-5342-4554-544552212121_605.ROM at 4AF
OEM/Table IDs identified are:
1. ACRSYSACRPRDCT
Pubkey (x1)
Marker (2.1) (ACRSYSACRPRDCT) (x1)


You have to extract Bios from original biof file, then copy from Rom folder that file in a USB Dos Formatte Fat32 and choice the right keys to press at reboot.
Find Recovery Mode on internet and follow the guide.

I downloaded Insyde Tool and it says recovery file is RCVBOOT.CAP
i formatted fat32 usb stick

Can You tell me what files should containt usb stick ?

Please Upload your Bios File as I cannot download it.
Use Rghost or Sendspace server.
I downloaded a version different may be so Recovery Name is not right mine !
Let me know

And also why i could enter bios after update and see 1 GB ram memory ?
bios was working after update till restart.

I think its ram problem ? or it is still bios problem ?

Yes It's an Ami APTIO Bios (using Phoenix Structure) and there are two files :

1. P11-B4.CAP is an EC (Embedded Controller) version to check Bios
2. RCVBOOT.CAP is Bios Region for your Eeprom Chip

I have not experience with this Bios kind and I have read that none was able to Recovery this kind of Bios !
I think You have gto get an SPI External Programmer to write Eepom directly by POMONA oic Clip !

thank You very much for this informations.
i spoke with acer service and they say it is not bios problem.
i am sending back pc for a guarantee service.

thx
