Hello all! I have a old Laptop Acer Aspire e1-571-32344g50mnks
The problem is when i press the power button it takes very long time (some times 1h) to boot up to the "Acer" screen!
I read in some forums that maybe a BIOS problem and tried to update bios, but after restart I get another error
Invalid Firmware image!!!

I Tried in Windows 10, tried in Windows 7 also same error!
Any suggestions for fixing that? Thanks in advance!

System Model: Aspire E1-571
BIOS: InsydeH2O Version 03.72.23V2.13

I can not post links yet!

your bios version is v2.13 (read from image posted).

on acer support, for Aspire E1-571 is available 2 bios update version, the 2.17 and 2.21.

try first with 2.17

corrupted/interrupted during update possibly.
try this; on clean windows 10 installation,download bios update version 2.21,unzip with 7-zip,disable user account control,restart,disable windows defender settings,close all running apps (there should not be any on clean windows 10 but better be safe),then right click on version 2.21's exe saying run as administrator

Any help for that?

Hallo,

1. Just try to remove the main battery, dismantle the laptop and remove the coin cell battery for couple of minutes. This might set the bios in a total default as well as it would reset the bios date/timer. Then assemble it back together and boot the laptop with FreeDOS USB key with AFUDOS tool and the .rom or .bin image of the bios. This way you might be able to flash the latest version.

2. If not, then, it seems like that the only chance is to disasemble the laptop, desolder the BIOS chip and flash it manually... cuz you cant fix this from Windows or DOS.

Good luck
