Hello. I've got a problem with the bios on my acer.
It's a modded V1.30 bios. It was working fine till i decided to disable HT(Hyper Threading). Now, after restart laptop has black screen, no Hdd activity.
I can't remove CMOS because it's soldered to the motherboard.
What else can I do? Please help.

- Use this CRISIS package: CRISIS DISK - Phlash16_v1.7.0.18_DiffSize.rar
1. Rename your original notebook's BIOS image (*.WPH) to BIOS.WPH & put it in the WINCRIS folder (where WINCRIS.EXE is located)
2. Create CRISIS disk with USB key/flash drive using WINCRIS.EXE
3. Make sure there are three files in the CRISIS disk; minidos.sys, phlash16.exe & BIOS.WPH
4. Plug the USB storage into a USB port on the bricked notebook.
5. The bricked notebook must be in power OFF state. Plugged in the battery.
6. Press Fn + ESC button then plug in AC. (the powerbutton does NOT flash)
7. Press Power button to initiate system CRISIS mode. Release Fn+Esc keys after you see activity at the CRISIS disk.
8. After a few minutes (~2 or so) the system reboots, and then reboots again and loads into windows, install successful!(Please wait for 15 minutes. If after 5 minutes it doesn't restart itself, press the touchpad's right button & wait for 15 minutes. Do not press any key to prevent interrupting the recovery process.)
