Acer Swift 1 SF114-33: Unable to access BIOS after dual booting Pop!_OS and Windows 11 Pro

Tue, 07 Oct 2025 16:51:34 -0700

About a few weeks ago, I decided to dual boot for the first time. And, Pop!_OS appeared to be the perfect linux distro.
But, one small issue (actually not that small...), my BIOS doesn't quite work anymore!
When I press f2, the screen just blacks out, and my mouse just reverts to its basic lighting option.
I have uninstalled Pop!_OS, yet, my BIOS still has the same issue...
I have the acer BIOS version 1.05, the latest version for this laptop.
I have tried installing the update file to the same version, but it detects the current BIOS I have and quits.
To anyone with a laptop very similar, like the SF114-34, or even mine, please help!

Acer Swift 1 SF114-32: Black Screen + No Disk/Bootable Device found, including on Bios

Sun, 10 Dec 2023 00:22:29 -0700

Dear Sir/Madam,

Please help, my Acer Swift laptop SF114-32 has a permanent black screen. When searching the Bios "No Bootable Device" found. I guess either the SSD and/or the Graphics card have failed - I've already removed the battery and re-seated the SSD (128Mb) card and put back together but no improvement.

What do I do next to try and fix it myself please?

I would appreciate your feedback.

Thanks and warm regardss,

J. Davie

Acer Swift 1 SF114-32: How do I fix my keys, I spilt acetone on them?

Thu, 03 Aug 2023 07:25:43 -0700

I spilt some acetone on my keys a few months ago and my computer is working fine no tech difficulties, but it obviously dissolved the glue and it’s really hard to press down on the keys now and 2 of them fell off and more are loose/ wonky and not fitted right now, some of them are fine, the computer wasn’t used very much so it’s not a big deal, but i was messaging with a computer repair shop and i think he’s saying i need a whole new keyboard, but i think the keys just need to be replaced along with the glue, i don’t know how computers work but the man was asking what color my computer is and i don’t think he’s need the colour if it was just the generic keys that he was fixing? or am i dumb and is there no difference between a new keyboard or new keys? please help!! it’s a acer notebook computer, model number N20H2, in pink. thanks very much!!

Acer Swift 1 SF114-32: Why is my trackpad loud?

Sat, 14 Jan 2023 11:31:26 -0700

My trackpad was working perfectly until I spilled some ice cream juice on it. I used a towel to get rid of it. It worked until the left click was very loud and stiff. The right click is fine, no problem. I looked on Google to see if anyone had a solution or had experienced this problem. No one had this issue before. please Help.
