Asking this because some clowns at Acer decided that they will only provide BIOS updates through Windows Update.

Edit: I'm not talking about installing the BIOS file. They don't even provide BIOS file in the first place.

That's a bummer

Just curious, why do you want to update your BIOS?

Because I'm also curious. not actually wanting to update BIOS.
