Good afternoon! I have an Acer Nitro AN17-42. How do I correctly rename the .fd file to restore the BIOS via FN+ESC? I tried 3B0B8086.fd 5AABFE02.fd 00007007.fd BIOS.bin BIOS.fd DLMVA.fd FH4ATx64.FD H2OFFT64.bin H2OFFT64.fd HadesSX64.fd ME.fd nitro17.fd Z5WAHX64.fd ZPU ZPU_V1_29.fd ZPUA.fd all archive file names 63C8FC24-0454-4a86-ACEF-3EABA3554BAC ZPU.fd platform.ini msvcr90.dll msvcp90.dll mfc90u.dll H2OFFT.cat Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest Microsoft.VC90.MFC.manifest InterToolx64.efi H2OFFT.inf H2OFFT64.sys H2OFFT-Wx64.exe FlsHook.exe Ding.wav BiosImageProcx64.dll
Hi y'all! I'm not sure if this is the correct forum to post about this, I'm new to the community but heard my best bet is here. I have an Acer Aspire A515-54 and I've been having some problems with my BIOS. First, even if I have Secure Boot enabled and I'm using Windows 10 or Windows 11, eventually I get an error saying Secure Boot failed and I must reinstall the system (I've created the bootable USB with Rufus and/or Ventoy, both give the same problem eventually). I decided it was best to just turn it off, however at some point I was trying to add Ventoy's keys for Secure Boot but ended up adding something else (not sure what)... now if I boot up my laptop with F2 the BIOS never loads, it just stays on the Acer logo, this was not happening prior to re-installing an OS (I'm running Manjaro right now). So I can boot up the laptop, I can boot up the boot menu, yet I can't access my BIOS neither delete those keys... also, last time I was able to boot up my BIOS it only shows the "boot option" I enabled with those "keys", it didn't show Windows Boot Manager neither Linux Boot Manager. Also, if I connect any USB device (like an X1 gamepad or the actual bootable USB with Ventoy) it just never loads, it does nothing unless I go to boot menu. I'm not sure what to do... I was thinking of maybe flashing the BIOS again but I'm not sure how to do that, I remember doing an upgrade and now I'm running Insyded v1.24... Could someone help me/guide me on what's going on and how to fix it? Thank you very much
Interesting find. It looks like the recovery filename is indeed tied to the platform ID (like ICL50 in platform.ini), which explains why renaming works when it matches the board. Has anyone tried dumping the firmware volumes to locate the recovery name directly (instead of relying only on Andy’s tool)? If the recovery table is consistent across Insyde BIOS versions, we might be able to standardize the naming method for different models.
