So unlucky of me it hasnot even been a week since i bought my acer laptop that i damaged the bios.
Now i want to recover my bios through a crisis recovery disk
Can Someone please name the files one by one in a bootable crysis recovery disk by which one managed to do the bios recovery
i have been trying to recover my bios in acer aspire 5315 but no success.
Files i have been using are
minidos.sys
bios.wph (replaced by the bios file downloaded from acer site)
phlash16.exe
autoexec.bat (with string PHLASH16 /mode=3 /x bios.WPH )
When i insert a cd with all those files in the laptop and start my laptop my dvd rom start to blink light(i think that means laptop is trying to boot from the dvd rom) and then the voice of the rotating disc comes for few seconds and then stops .This happens again after every 1 or 2 mins so i think there is something wrong.
I follow the steps told in the post by Erudite ICC to start the recovery procedure (by all that fn +Esc pressing stuff)
Please mention the strings used in the autoexec.bat Perhaps i m using them wrong.
Hope this would help me a lot
Also if someone who has done a successful recovery throught a CD or DVD or a USB Flash Drive tell me the way to do it through a cd or a usb drive i will b most grateful becoz i dont have a external usb floppy drive to connect to my laptop.
please indicate the extra files i need to do a recovery through a Cd, dvd or a usb flash disk

Thanks to Allah After 4 days of searching I got the solution and it was simpler than most of em out there
My acer aspire got a insyde bios.
Thanks to a kind hearted Polish guy who gave me a recovery disk to do so.
This is the procedure
Simply unpack this file and put it in any medium (i think so) I myself used a cdrom to do so.
Disconnect battery and Ac adapter
Connect USB Floppy drive or a USB Flash Drive or insert a Cd(whichever u choose).
Press [Fn]+[Esc] and plug In the Ac Power adapter, and then press Power button.
Release the buttons. Notebook should read the crisis disk. There will be no sounds, no beeps. It took about 2-3 minutes and notebook powered down itself.
Then plug in the battery simply power it on.
Thats all. Now normal screen appears and acer is alive.
Ask me if any questions r there.
