Help update failure

Hi,
I have a rooted Acer a100 and am having trouble with Ics update. It downloads the 188mb file, then reboots. I get the green android with the clogs turning, then the clogs change to a '!' Symbol. It hangs for about 30 secs then reboot with update filed message.

Any help out there or are there any update logs i could look at to help me.

Some people saying build.prop is corrupt or changed. Haven't changed mine but where is it? Also are there any log files i can look at.

did the factory reset, I download the 188 Mb file, run the unzip, then the restart, green Android and gears for 25% aprox. then green Android and yellow exclamation, 20 sec later it restarts then the Update Failed message.

Any ideas??? =S
