9 Steps total

Step 1: Preparation

To complete this task you will require;
The Acer Aspire netbook
The power charger for the netbook
A Windows based computer with internet access (Not the acer)
A 2GB or smaller usb pen Drive

Step 2: Locate the Acer Aspire one Model

This is usually located on the serial sticker
It does not say model number but should be next to the MFG Date:
eg. MFG Date: 0809 AOA 150-BW
The model is AOA150

Step 3: Download the correct Driver

Go to Acer website
Select support
Select Driver Downloads
Either type the model number or select via Category
Netbook, Aspire One, A0A150
Select the Netbook
Select the Bios Tab
Download the correct Bios to the computer

Step 4: Extracting & Setting up New Bios

Once the bios is downloaded go to the location and extract the files
Once the files are extracted open the sub folder Dos_flash
Rename the 'version.fd' to zg5ia32.fd
Insert the usb drive into the computer
Format the usb memory stick as fat (Not fat32)
Once formatted copy the files zg5ia32.fd and FLASHIT.exe to the root of the usb pen drive

Step 5: Flash the Netbook

With the Netbook off plug in the power cable
You should have a green light on the battery symbol and no other lights
If the light is orange/red wait for the netbook to charge and the light to go solid green
Plug the USB flash drive into any usb port
Press and hold the FN key and 'Esc' key
Now press and hold the power button
You should see the power button light start to blink
Once this has started to blink you can release the keys.
This is now flashing the netbook it can take up to 7 minutes to complete

Step 6: Netbook Now booted

Once the netbook has finished flashing the bios in should autoboot into windows with the display
This should as resolved the issue

Step 7: Helpful steps to prevent this in the future

One reason this is caused is due to the battery not being calibrated

Step 8: Calibrate the battery

Make sure the battery is full charged
Boot the laptop into windows
open the control panel
go to power options
disable hibernation under the hibernate tab
Go to power schemes and select always on
Change everything to never for battery and plugged in
Go to Alarms tab
and turn all the alarms off
Now let the battery drain completely till the netbook turns off and will not turn on
Once the battery has been drained plug the power adapter into the netbook and wait for the netbook to fully charge and the battery light has gone green.
I would recommend to complete the cycle 3 times

Step 9: Setting Power Options

To save the netbook forcing shutdown change the power options and alarms
This is only a guide as an example
Go to start
Control Panel
Power Options
Select the Hibernation Tab
Enable Hibernation
Go to Alarms Tab
Set the low battery alarm at 20%
Set the action to be display message
set the critical battery alarm at 10%
Select Actions
Set to Display message
Set Alarm Action to Hibernate
Set the Force stand by or shutdown even if a program stops responding
Go to the Power Schemes
Set the plugged in options and battery options
e.g. Plugged In
Turn Off monitor 20Mins
Turn Off HDD after 2Hours
System Standby Never
e.g. Running on Batteries
Turn Off monitor 5Mins
Turn Off HDD after 30Hours
System Standby 1Hour

Apply

This should now stop the Acer requiring the Bios fix
I would recommend you run the battery calibration once a month

    I think you should pull out the battery and then put it back in and watch how easily it recovers itself after prompting you to accept normal recovery.....Had same problem with my Acer and this has never failed

    I recently encountered the 'black screen of death' on my aspire one and it tried all re-flashing the bios without success as my aspire one would not even read the usb drive.
    It turned out that the problem was a faulty memory. Fortunately I still had an old 1gb ram that I used and it started to work!

    hi, after I downloaded and extracted the driver, I couldn't find any Dos_flash folder. There was only a .exe and readme file. What should I do if that is the case? Thanks.

    I downloaded the Bios from the Acer website but there is no subfolder 'Dos_flash '. The Bios only contained an application 'Q1VZC109' and a readme.txt. How do I proceed from here?
