Not familiar w/ Acer laptops, but the best method to start is by going here:

Download and unzip, I believe you have to copy to a floppy, but read the inst.
I don't think with recent laptops that you can reset by removing or shorting the CMOS battery. If support from Acer hasn't helped, then try the above cmospwd utility. I has worked for me on several Gateway laptops.

Restart your computer in MS-DOS mode.

When you get to the c:\> or c:\WINDOWS> prompt type DEBUG and press Enter.

A hyphen (-) prompt will appear waiting for you to enter commands.

Enter the following commands, pressing Enter after each one. Note: the o is the letter o and stands for OUTPUT.

o 70 2e

o 71 ff

q

After the q command type exit.
Now restart and see if you enter the bios. It has worked for me before
