Hi, All
I need help for my Acer Aspire T3-715.
I can see that under BIOS/Firmware section I cann se new 2018 updates. But I don`t understand which one I should install and which one is not important for me.
Therefore please advice me about what to do?

My BIOS Version is: R01-A4, 19.05.2016

Thanks.

    What problem are you having that you think a BIOS firmware update will fix? If you don't have a problem, then you should not try to update the BIOS firmware due to the danger of bricking the machine. Jack E/NJ

    Thanks for the reply.

    Its now 3 time I done "Reset This PC" and Removed everything. I done all that 3 times.
    Whenever you do like that. Then I become so sad. Because lots of things you lost. Yes there is a option for backup. But not all 100% being backup. When you Rest PC, because its not working 100%.
    The main problem is Blue Screen Error.

    Maybe I editing too much pictures via an editing program? I don`t think that I do that too much.

    Anyway, I done that now 3 times  :'( and do not want to do that again. Because then you lost too many thing and its boring.
    Now since I did that3rd time. I don`t know which program or what I have to do to avoid further problems?

    Thanks.

    You should install 

    Version:R02-B2

    This will update KBL/SKL Microcode to 8E/C6 (Spectre v2 & SSB v4), fix Intel ME to 11.8.50.3460 (Intel SA-00075 & Intel SA-00086) and fix Systems hangs up during BIOS POST. It also updates GOP driver (EFI video) from 9.0.1029 to 9.0.1051. It is an encapsulated AMI Aptio-V UEFI BIOS.

    Some users are not so lucky to get these fixes. To enable the SSB v4 patches you need to install a registry patch that I have made available here, unless you fancy wading through this guide here and running Powershell scripts. Unzip the file and double-click it to add it to the registry (UAC elevation required). 

    You will then have full Spectre mitigation enabled without the need of hotfixes and unless you clean install Windows or use an old recovery image, you will not need to enable the fixes again as in-situ upgrades from Windows Update will leave the protection active.

    Also you should have posted in Desktops as your Aspire isn't a notebook / laptop.

    WOW, so good suggestion.

    But I am a bit worried to do all that. Because maybe it can go wrong way? Because I just need a little help that what should I do like 1st step and then 2nd sted etc....

    Shall I try first to install R02-B2 or install the registry patch first?
    Sorry my english is so poor that I cannot explain my question. But I hope you understand all?

    Thanks

    Acer73 Please answer my earlier questions before trying any BIOS changes due to the danger of bricking the machine.

    Please do not upgrade to version R02-B2! Although this bios is available for model t3-715, desktops from the same family often have motherboards with different revisions! So you should not upgrade for instance from version R01-A4 to bios R02-B2, because if there is such difference in nomenclature, it is because motherboards are of different revisions! You can leave your desktop unusable!

    Hello,

    Please see the attached file that you requested.
    I have now Rest my PC 3 times, and removed everything. Which is so sad and just frustrated. Just because of this image that I attached with this post. But some other few things too.

    This PC RAM is 8GB. NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970.

    Yes, I agree with egydiocoelho
    Uninstall, don't just disable, any nonMicrosoft antivirus like Norton, McAfee, AVG etc. All you need is Windows Defender and Malicious Software Tool which are automatically updated. Let us know how the tips in the video work. Jack E/NJ
