    I tried updating my bios from version 1.06 to 1.26.

    It resulted in a black screen hard disk and power button still power up, I tried using the Crisis method by renaming the WHD.

    But none of the keyboard combinations to load off of the usb are working (no blinking).

    I used the Crisis software to make my flashdrive a 32 mb FAT disk.


    Any help would be appreciated I went looking on youtube but there is just a cluster of Acer Aspire One videos and nothing exactly for my laptop.
