Hello there,

Just got my hands on a 2017 Acer One S1003 tablet. Quick overview :
  • Quad-core, 1.44GHz Intel Atom x5-Z8300
  • 32 Gb of internal storage
  • 2 Gb of RAM

It's a nice machine, but its BIOS only supports booting 32 bit OS installers, even though the CPU is x64. 32 bit support is slowly dropped, and as time goes more and more programs stop supporting it...

The BIOS is branded as Insyde, version 1.17. It can be found here :

I'd like to be able to install 64 bit OS on this machine to use it at full power.

Many, many thanks in advance.
