Acer Nitro 5 AN515-54 boot from a USB Flash Drive BIOS EDIT

#rufus #acer #mvmp

Here is a guide for those wanting to put their own Win10 OS after upgrading the NVMe SSD to a larger capacity!
***If you want to re-enable the on-screen lock-unlock notification since this keyboard does NOT have an LED indicator when the NUM/CAP LOCK is on, you want to download the "Acer Quick Access" application***

Usually when i buy something new and it gives me problems like this, i have rage problems.
Oh, btw it worked. I only set Rufus like you said, didn't need to set Bios. Thank you

Thanks a ton mate ! After upgrading SSD and installing OS on SSD, I faced a BSOD error showing a required device isn't connected or can't be accessed. Then if I went to BIOS and exit it would start normally. I tried cmd and tried creating a new EFI partition on SSD hoping windows would boot from new EFI but all failed. Finally the answer found in disabling Fastboot and changing sequence of boot. So silly but you video helped a great deal. Thanks again

Thank you so much for this video. Someone brought us this exact model with a bad m.2 and we replaced, but couldn't get it to boot to USB for Windows install. The instructions in this video worked! Liked and Subscribed!

My laptop Acer nitro 5 an515-57 didn't see in bios options *sata mode* to change in '' AHCI mode'' for install Windows 10 for first use. How can i do?

Yo man. I wanna say Thank You.. Eventho took me a while, two days, but I got it fixed finally.. Thumbs up for your vid!!!

Acer sure makes it difficult to execute a simple prompt to booting to usb but you saved the day so thx

[speedaru]

thx i was reinstaling windows on my computer but i wasnt able to choose my usb as a boot option and i was able thanx to your video 👍

[realcygnus]

slightly off topic but related: some newer acers bios/FW hide sata options .... ctrl+s from main bios menu to unhide discovered while I couldn't get any usb boot tools to even see the nvme for cloning

[joicemarques]

Thak you for the video, I'm going to try in my computer tomorrow

Ainda em 2021, já ajudou a dar o boot aqui, muito obrigado. A Bios já foi atualizada mas as opções ainda funcionam.

in the new 2020 Acer AN5 15-55 Nitro 5, the bios doesnt allow you to set AHCI mode just like that. You have to in Windows OS set safeboot, then reboot, hot F2 into bios, then in bios >main>press ctrl-S then you set sata to AHCI mode. Seems they made it more difficult in 2020 Nitro 5.

[bzjsnsbshsusd]

Everything happens exactly as in the video but I am stuck on the blue screen after acer loading screen and windows installation menu does not pop up. All the settings are exactly identical
