#Acer aspire revo r3610 windows 10 how to

I ordered one on ebay to debug how to re-dump such chip. So you are right, the only solution will be to SPI-flash the socketed MX25L8005 bios chip, the only way to unbrick that revo for a running POST. Now for your R1600, as you say that you have a speedy fan at powerup, it sounds like POST stopped to run (it should have slow down fan within 2 or 3 seconds, then beep and send to screen).Īnd neither AMIBOOT.ROM recovery boot nor VGA display & enter Setup can now occur.

Some tools like AMICMOS and AMISCE doesnt work on my imax mini, I have to understand why the variables' script and map cannot be extracted (to be compared and analyze risk).

Last mod may need more CMOS VRAM synchro flashing options if the R1600 & 3610 BIOSes do not contain anymore the parts of previous D02 code & data (as hope for hidden submenus made not selectable but still complete here).īios programming skills may also be needed, at least disassembly be a must. In the next steps, the first mod should allow easier recovery, as it does only exchange vga bios without logic or location impact in POST/Setup/NVRAM/CMOS sequences. Other way could be to export 1B + 21 D02 modules to R1600/3610 latest bios (with modded MMTOOL that support 1B + 21 update, google it).ĭon't know if you already tried the R3600's 8C8A1p09.rom 'downgrade' as success?Īnd found faulty with the same 2 beeps for the R3600 8C8A1p06.rom (same VGA driver as 8C8A1d02.rom, possibly ION-LE UNaware)? Perhaps not enough, but at least a way to. If right, then hope switching D02'20 pci vga rom driver to the late one R6000' P09, or R1600 P05 or R1600+3610 P06 (all sized B0C4) could be a way to retrofit D02 for R1600 and R3610 usage. and not with R3600 P09 ! I think P06 is still avaible on acer R3600 bios download site, aside P09 latest one. P01), and point to the same black screen and 2 beeps error. So it could be a proof of the VGA driver problem if you can test downgrading your R1600 bios to R3600 P06 (or P05 or. Starting with R6000' P09, and R1600 P05 and R1600+3610 P06, the '20' pci vga rom driver is same and contains both PID for ION (087D) and ION LE (087E), sequence is (ascii) : NVROM.4.o.~.8.l. R6000'D02 and upto P06 have a 20 pci vga rom driver witch seems paired to ION, ie are not ION LE aware. That's like it is ION LE (or ION 1.1) the downgrade bios problem.

Wifi should not matter as that can be added or replaced and should not effect boot. I am not sure how to change bios settings with MMTool. Looking at the pictures of the motherboard in which Revo is reviewed that has this older bios the motherboard and revision are exactly the same as mine.

Reading documents the only difference is that LE is for XP without directx 10 but this can be hacked in drivers to enable it, so I wonder what is real difference in the hardware.

What is weird is new bios in the information shows the Desktop as 3610 even though it is not. I believe it is likely the VGA since the ION LE is in the R16 has ION. Clearing the CMOS with the jumper did not help as well. Looking at the AMI bios beeps it says about the memory but I changed the stick as well to be sure and used other slot and even both slots to be sure without any boot. One beep for post, one more beep then two fast beeps. Then three beeps they are not in unison though. There is a post beep then nothing on the screen.
