I was able to unlock the BIOS in my Acer Aspire ES1-512-C89Y.

I had to take out the laptop HDD and connect it to my desktop. I then installed 16.04 LTS 64-bit (because I had the 32-bit version of 17.10), put the HDD back into the laptop and performed the steps presented in the first post.

After a couple of reboots BIOS was saving the settings.
