It keeps Freezing for 4-5 seconds then restarts.
I gave it to the service center and they updated windows and bios and firmware but i had lost predator sense hence the turbo mode and fan control and rgb too
i tried to install it agann but as soon as predator sense got installed it stared to happen again .I then did a system restore before the predator sense and it was fixed but still..no control over fans and rgb and turbo due to no having the predator sense ..please help this was my dream laptop .i really dont want to compromise after spending so much..please help

    animaxavier to enter the bios keep pressing F2 on boot multiple times the go to the last tab and setup defaults then save and exit and if youre looking for the old red version just download it from the acer support page for your model but this new one works fine on all predator/nitro plus you can control everything from the mobile with the mobile app paired anyways its up to you :)

    animaxavier if your bios its asking for a password (either system or hdd) someone had to access it and set it up themselves theres no way to remove it without having the correct pass only acer can do it you need to contact them and send it back ask for a bios reflash password removal  and the link for the latest ps version its on my post above good luck :)

    Does the computer still restart after installing the predator sense?
    yes it does 
    it restarts only when PS is installed otherwise its very smooth running machine


  • I have already seen a problem similar to yours in the Portuguese community. Can you send a screenshot of the acer care center, which shows how your laptop model is written?
