1) Format a USB memory key with the FAT mode.
2) Download the latest version of the BIOS from Acer support website:
* HERE if you have a Aspire One A150
https://www.acer.com/worldwide/support/
* HERE for the Aspire One A110
https://www.acer.com/worldwide/support/
3) Extract the files from the zip and put both the FLASHIT.EXE and the BIOS file in the root directory of the memory key.
4) Rename the BIOS file to ZG5IA32.FD and then remove the disk.
5) Turn the AA1 off, insert the battery and connect the AC adapter.
6) Insert the USB Memory Key into one of the USB port of the Aspire One.
7) Press Fn+Esc, keep it pressed and press the power button to turn the AA1 on.
8) Release Fn+Esc after a few seconds, the power button will be blinking.
9) Press the power button once. The AA1 will start the BIOS flash, do not interrupt for any reason. After some minutes the power button will stop blinking, and then the AA1 will reboot. Wait till the AA1 has completed all this operations.
Tips: Trust me it works...
copy the latest BIOS file...mine works with ver 3114...and...i put my flash disk om the left side USB. first i use the right side but did not work...lol

The instruction on how to flash and update the BIO's were excellent. As mentioned these were even better than what is on the Acer web site.
Thank for the help it was very much appreciated.

You reformatted your hardrive and your video driver didnt survive, you have to use the driver disc you got with your laptop, which begs the question how you can install it without seeing it, does anything happen on the screen? even the boot menu options? Unless you dropped it thats the only thing i can think of. If its a dell call customer support they are usually very good.
Hello,
Were you able to find out what happen to the laptop? I am having the same problem with my Acer laptop. I purchased it three years ago. Couple of days ago it was working good then the next day cannot see the screen at all. I tried to reboot it from the cd and nothing came on and I even plugged it in to my desktop monitor but no LCD screen error problems came up. I am assuming it might be the motherboard. The hard drive is going and I hear the fan going. What else would cause this? It was never dropped before this occurred.

Yes you have to press the power button again Step 9 something that the ACER does not include in its expose`
Acer please fix this problem. It is such a disappointment to have a new netbook and having to go through the painful experience of thinking that you made the wrong choice!

I had the same problem with my A150
Acer support forgot to mention that you have to press the power button another time.
Worked great
