FAQ's:
Q: I cant switch between Legacy/CSM and UEFI or switching didn't help.
A: If you cannot change the Legacy/UEFI settings or if changing them did not help, can you find any Recovery or Repair options in BIOS? If not, or if that does not help, then try reinstall the Operating System;
Let me know how that goes :)

Q: What if Windows does not install and keeps erroring out?

Q: Will changing those settings in BIOS erase any data?
A: Changing those settings in BIOS will not delete any data from your hard drive :)

Q: I cant find the Fn Key to enter BIOS.
A: Some models use different keys so you will have to try them all :( Also, some models require you to hold the Fn Key at the same time your pressing the Function key. Also, some viewers have reported F12 as the needed key. You may have to doublecheck if your Boot Key is disables as well. If so, you will have to enable it.

Q: It says I can’t enable the legacy option ROMS with PTT enabled
A: Go into the Security Tab and try to Disable PTT Security. If that does not work, then skip that step, and continue with the rest of the video. If you cannot locate the options to switch between or if switching does not work, then skip that step and continue with the rest of the video :)

I'm trying to move the easier hardware stuff there so that I can focus on the more in depth troubleshooting and diagnostic videos here :)

I am CRYING with relief. My laptop is 2 weeks old and just gave up but I followed this video and fixed it in the BIOS, which is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you!

[BlackHalo]

I liked the video before trying any of the solutions because I just love how you explained everything. Tried the bios thing first as it was the easiest and I'm lazy, time was right, changed it to legacy and it works! No idea why but Thanks a million!

[innaferrer]

I'm a teacher and this just saved almost a year's worth of work. Thank you for this video!!!

[m-zone]

Changed the bios thing to legacy and guess what? A miracle! After I lost all hope! Thank you so much! People like you, who selflessly share your knowledge with people like me and just about everybody else here, you really deserve good things to happen to you randomly and from random people.

You are my hero! I have a 2013 Acer Aspire V5 that is like my comfort food...the keyboard is just the right size, the screen is perfect...anyway, I was worried it had finally died forever, but your video brought it back to life! Changed BIOS to Legacy and it booted right up! Thank you so much for your detailed, calm, and patient explanation. Cheers!

[franzcruz]

Currently have a friend having this problem and he's asking me for help since I'm an IT, very helpful and informative. Thank you very much

[sbalogh]

Unbelievable. That's all that was stopping me from booting for more than a month after trying so many other things. Wrong date and time. Thank you so much.

[tmwayne]

Became terrified today. Turned out to be within the 10%! Thank you! I wish you a happy and long life 🙏

[BrodmannsArea]

Omg! I’m so happy this worked. Your explanation helped someone like me who does not really know anything about computers. I can’t thank you enough! 😭

[HappyDarla]

Oh my! You saved me my job! Thank you much! I was already in tears since I was also dealing anxiety attacks these past weeks. God bless you sir! I owe you big time! ❤🙏

[kenmorgan]

I had just cloned my hard drive to an identical notebook but the machine gave me "no bootable device." All I did was disable Legacy boot and it booted up properly. So thank you so much.

[edlieblick]

Wow! A "how to" video that works! Had an Acer in storage for a year.... couldn't find the boot drive. Per your instructions, corrected the date ...and switched to legacy. Boom. Up & running. Thanks for your help!

[anru]

I dug out an Acer computer and dusted it off to see it if works. Of course not! Google led me to this video. I have to say this is probably one of the best tech support videos I ever watched and I watch a lot of them nowadays lol. Clear demonstration, easy to follow and he tells you the reasons behind each action. So much appreciated!! Thank you!

[xo]

thank you so much for this! was worried it was a way bigger problem than a bios issue, managed to get it all fixed in the end due to you!
