I ran the rescue usb again while holding the laptop air intakes in front of a window AC and it was able to finish. It found 6 problems and healed them. I was then able to flash the bios with a newly downloaded bios from Acer.Then when I rebooted, Check Disk ran and replace a ton of orphan files.The Bios doesn't same the same as it was before this happened.In Bios, I can't access below the passwords. Like Secure Boot Mode,Erase all Secure Boot Settings, Select a UEFI File, Restore Secure Boot to Factory Default. I think I was able to access these before, but I could be wrong.

That new, I would save my personal stuff and restore it to factory setup and see if the problem starts up again.

General Computer Support / Computer shuts down while running Rescue USB
« on: October 10, 2014, 05:58:00 pm »
I had a suspicion and ran AVG rescue on a USB drive.At about 66% finished the computer shut down.I ran it on the other two I have and both came through ok.I tried to reinstall the bios (from the desktop) which I've done before and the computer shut down.I had to go into Bios and reset two settings before it would boot back up.Does it sound like I have a virus in the Bios?
