When you say you cleared the bios password, did you actually remove the cmos battery for about 15 minutes or did you just delete the old password, as acer normally protect the password and sections of the bios, removing the battery or shorting it is normally the only way.

As another option you could try resetting the jumper. Some boards save the password regardless unless the reset the BIOS by using the resetting jumper. Refer to the motherboard's manual for further information on how to do this.
