    Hi! I have recently refreshed an acer 5735 with a 13 euros aliexpress T9600 Cpu to let my girlfriend use this brick for acouple more years to do her web browising.

    I have a problem: it's on bios 1.07. THe cpu is correctly recognized, but I wanted to update the bios to version 1.08 (found on the official support page) or to 1.10 (found on the Acer FTP website).

    Everytime I launch the bios updated bat file or exe file on windows 10, it gives me weird errors.

    Any advice? :)
