Question making ACPI work...??

I have an older machine it's a Celeron 466, w/ 128MB RAM, and three 1.2GB harddrives. The install goes well, and I get to the first real boot and I see a message saying that my BIOS doesn't make the "cut off" as it is dated 1999, and it says that the cut off is 2001. So it says to use acpi=force in the kernel args. I edit the grub.conf and add the argument and no change. I still get the message, I even tried apm=off to no avail. Any help would be great.

TIA,

Seph
