    Clearing Password Check and BIOS Recovery
    This section provide you the standard operating procedures of clearing password and BIOS recovery for Acer 
    SM80. Acer SM80 provides one Hardware Open Gap on main board for clearing password check, and one 
    Hotkey for enabling BIOS Recovery.
    Clearing Password Check
    Hardware Open Gap Description is as follows:
    If users set a BIOS Password (Supervisor Password and/or User Password) for security reasons, the BIOS will 
    prompt for a password during system POST or when systems enter to BIOS Setup menu. However, if it is 
    necessary to bypass the password check, users need to short the HW Gap to clear the password by 
    performing the following procedure:
    1.Power off the system, and unplug the AC and Battery from the machine.
    2.Open the Hard Drive and RAM doors.
    3.Remove the Hard drive
    4.Remove the mylar as shown in the above figure
    5.Find the appropriate HW Gap on M/B as shown in the picture.
    • G2 is the Secondary RTC Reset. This signal resets the manageablility register bits in the RTC 
    well when the TRTC battery is removed. The SRTCRST# input must always be high when all 
    other RTC power planes are on. In the case where the RTC Battery is dead or missing on the 
    platform, the SRTCRST# pin must rise before the RSMRST# pin.
    • G3 is the RTC Reset. When asserted, this signal resets register bits in the RTC well. Unless 
    the CMOS is being cleared (only to be done in the G3 power state), the RTCRST# input must 
    always be high when all other RTC power planes are on. In the case where the RTC Battery is 
    dead or missing on the platform, the RTCRST# pin must rise before the RSMRST# pin.
    6.Use an electric conductivity tool to short the two points of the HW Gap G3.

    G1 
    						
    							214Chapter 5
    7.Plug in AC, keeping the HW Gap shorted, and press Power Button to power on the system till BIOS POST 
    finish. Then remove the tool from the HW Gap.
    8.Restart system. Press F2 key to enter BIOS Setup menu.
    If there is no Password request, the BIOS Password has been successfully cleared. Otherwise, please follow 
    the steps and try again.
    NOTE: The steps are only for clearing BIOS Password (Supervisor Password and User Password).
    BIOS Recovery by Crisis Disk
    BIOS Recovery Boot Block:
    BIOS Recovery Boot Block is a special block of BIOS. It is used to boot up the system with minimum BIOS 
    initialization. Users can enable this feature to restore the BIOS firmware to a successful one once the previous 
    BIOS flashing process failed.
    BIOS Recovery Hotkey:
    The system provides a function hotkey: Fn+Esc, for enable BIOS Recovery process when system is powered 
    on during BIOS POST. To use this function, it is strongly recommended to have the AC adapter and Battery 
    present. If this function is enabled, the system will force the BIOS to enter a special BIOS block, called Boot 
    Block.
    Steps for BIOS Recovery by USB flash crisis disk:
    Before doing this, prepare the Crisis USB key. The Crisis USB key could be made by executing the Crisis Disk 
    program in another system with Windows XP OS.
    Follow the steps below:
    1.Plug in the USB disk.
    2.Launch the wincris.exe program to create a USB Crisis Disk. Click Start to initiate the process.
    3.Select the Quick Format option to format the disk and click Start. Follow the instructions on the screen to 
    create the disk. 
    4.Copy the KAYF0X64.fd BIOS file into USB flash disk root directory.
    NOTE: Do not place any other *.fd file in the USB flash disk root directory.
    To use the Crisis USB key, do the following:
    1.Plug USB storage into USB port.
    2.Press Fn + ESC button then plug in AC power.
    The Power button flashes orange once.
    3.Press Power button to initiate system CRISIS mode.
    When CRISIS is complete, the system auto restarts with a workable BIOS. 
    4.Update the latest version BIOS for this machine by regular BIOS flashing process.

    FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) List
    This chapter gives you the FRU (Field Replaceable Unit) listing in global configurations of Acer SM80. Refer to this chapter 
    whenever ordering for parts to repair or for RMA (Return Merchandise Authorization).
    Please note that WHEN ORDERING FRU PARTS, you should check the most up-to-date information available on your 
    regional web or channel. For whatever reasons a part number change is made, it will not be noted on the printed Service 
    Guide. For ACER AUTHORIZED SERVICE PROVIDERS, your Acer office may have a DIFFERENT part number code from 
    those given in the FRU list of this printed Service Guide. You MUST use the local FRU list provided by your regional Acer 
    office to order FRU parts for repair and service of customer machines.
    NOTE: To scrap or to return the defective parts, you should follow the local government ordinance or regulations on how to 
    dispose it properly, or follow the rules set by your regional Acer office on how to return it.
