Hi,

As seen on various forums, and because my laptop (Acer Aspire-5315) is on a dual boot with an XP, I chose to flash my BIOS. Went from V.1.33 to V.1.45 (latest on Acer website). Problem solved.

Acer provides an .exe file in order to flash the BIOS (the one I used), and I can't find the bios file in order to use it under Linux system. BUT, I did find an ISO file for the BIOS 1.43 (not the latest but "new"enough to solve to problem apparently).

Download the ISO file from here:

http://www.lesgrosbarbares.info/flashbiosacer_v1_43.iso (attached here too).

Burn it, and boot on it.

Seems to work for quite a few users... Be careful anyway with it...
