1Don't delete your BIOS! It will brick your tablet. – David – 2014-05-27T16:58:44.963

There is usually some button battery to remove that will reset your bios. – Nifle – 2014-05-28T12:06:59.657

Deleting the EFI System Partition does not delete any firmware settings. Your system will not be able to boot anymore, that's all. (This because the EFI System Partition contains vital boot information, including the Windows Boot Manager.)

Ask Acer for instructions on how to reset your firmware password.

@Shuren Yes, but it still wouldn’t do anything about your firmware password. – Daniel B – 2014-05-27T16:55:07.687
