R610 - System Services Update Required

Hello and thank you for the time helping me with this.

To start, I have many Dell servers, so I am not extremely new to this; however, the other ones have just worked from the start. During boot, I get the "System Services Update Required" instead of the option to hit F10. I have briefly installed Windows 10 (yeah, I get....unsupported) on it, but that was just to quickly update the bios and other fun things since apparently the life cycle controller doesn't work for Dell R610's anymore. But I can't get the life cycle controller to even open NOR can I get the iDRAC to work. I have now installed TWO different and complete iDRAC express and Enterprise cards. This, I think, all deals with each other, but I do not know how to fix it. I have seen instructions to use the "live disc" of CENTos, but I have downloaded the ISO and tried to install to rufus only for rufus to tell me that it is a corrupted image file or something. I have opened the ISO just fine in my desktop using WinISO and ImageBurn, so I know that is not the case. Ideas? I just want to get the iDRAC to work (default ip was 0.0.0.0. then I changed the IPMI from LAN to "no" and it pulled an IP of 192.168.0.120, which is weird as my internal IP is 192.168.1.1 subnet. I even manually changed it to one in my local subnet and I STILL couldn't access it)
