You probably had a bad BIOS image and the BIOS is not trashed. I hope you made a copy for the OLD BIOS before to tried to flash it.

Page 163 of the ACER522 Service Manual details the steps to load a minimal recovery BIOS. You then should restore the OLD BIOS image.
The steps can be found here:

Good Luck
