now i just need a bios patch to enable AMD-v . Acer website has no patch
There IS a way of unlocking hidden phoenix bios features like virtualization but its extremely complex andw e are still trying to work it out,. There are a few modded acer bioses with virtualization enabled going around but i couldnt find one for the aspire 5532 - Sorry!

I have an acer aspire 5532 with TF-20 Athlon 64 cpu. I recently purchased a ZM-84 Turion x2 Ultra to upgrade, but when installed only get black screen.... Is there a BIOS update that would enable this CPU?? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!!!
Sorry , this is an Insyde bios and im not sure how the microcode insert/replace procedure works with this kind of bios

that was my problem, but i got it working by taking out the battery, then hold and press the power button for 10 seconds, then switch the ram cards around, replace battery, then start the computer without the power cord, if still not working, remove battery again and switch ram cards again, then try starting up with ac pluged in and battery also
