first of all, here are my system specs:
iwill dpi533
2 x 2.4 intel xeon
550 watt fortron psu
okay, i have been getting some errors when trying to load windows so i decided to try to reinstall. after that failed, still giving me the error like this:
i decided to try to reset the cmos via jumper switch to see if starting from scratch in the bios config would help. after switching the jumper to the reset position and then back, the system will not even power on. the few lights in the system turn on when power is plugged in, but nothing happens when i use my switch on my case. i tried to do the screwdriver trick to "jump" the mobo to make it start and that didn't work either i just checked to see if i could jump the psu and it started up fine.
at the moment, i have removed the battery and disconnected the power in hopes that it will reset itself.
any help i could get would be greatly appreciated.

the bios in this system is not fully acpi compliant. please contact your system vendor or visit http://www.hardware-update.com for an updated BIOS. if you are unable to obtain an updated BIOS or the latest BIOS supplied by your vendor is not ACPI compliant, you can turn off ACPI mode during text mode setup...
