Try to reseat the drives, maybe reset the BIOS to defaults (should be a jumpter on the motherboard or just take out the CMOS battery for a few seconds after unplugging the wall power).

MR hang-the-9 thanks for reply but both the cmos battery and the motherboard jumpter been tried but not worked. whats other option can i do

Try different drive ports on the board? Sata, PATA, whatever you have there. Sounds like the motherboard is bad if it can't read anything on it. Maybe try a different hard-drive just to rule that out.

Download the bios from Acer, will probably be on a CD iso or a floppy image. Create the boot disk and boot from it.
