My laptop recently can only see the acer logo and keep repeating, I was suspecting that my bios was corrupted and referring to the link below I believe is kind of similar problem. So, how do I do the flashing of bios via usb since it is not fn + esc key anymore?

    Flashing the BIOS will not resolve the system not booting to Windows therefore we do not recommend you doing so. The BIOS files are designed to be run in Windows and we do not offer a means to flash a BIOS any other way. If the system will not boot to Windows it could be a corrupt operating system which you could restore the system back to factory configurations using your recovery back up to try and resolve. Another reason could be a bad hard drive which will require repair.
