Did you replace with the correct battery?  Keychip will not do any good.

this is posted in the s2000 forum, but an 044 is an I-Game/Game king board. We need to know what you have. Is the green varta battery still installed?

depending on the board and the software sometimes the varta needs to be on the board. There is a board modification you can do, it's not difficult. do a search for 044 battery modification. You can also replace the dead varta with a new one and that should do the trick.

Those pics are too small to read the errors.  They are 320x240 and you are allowed 1000x1000.  You must also remove U24 if you remove the varta battery.

I am unable to read the messages on your screen. Pics too small, sideways and somewhat blurry. However, I see nothing related to the telltale battery so the Varta should not be an issue. If you removed it yourself, the U24 also needs to be removed or at least clip the pins. You might just need to key chip and set it up depending on what message is on your screen in the first picture. I recommend using a GKBDEV39 boot chip but it's not mandatory. It has clear and key chip features built in and you can turn off SHA & DSA checks for fast booting, all nice features. There is no need to remove and replace the chip to perform any of those functions making your KEY00028 and current boot chip pretty much obsolete. I assume you used the correct main battery, CR2354? I see from your profile you are in Texas.
I'm in Arkansas. PM me if I can help you.

Yes I replaced with the cr2354, but I am still getting the same errors that’s why I’m asking if chip 0028 will help or what other steps i need to take thanks again I’ll post the pictures again hopefully they will enlarge

Test your CR2354. Sometimes a new one can be bad. They are usually about 10% over rated voltage when new and when they get down to about 90% you will get an error. A key chip will not fix a battery problem but could be required after a battery change. I see nothing indicating that.

Push the self test button on the mpu.  Then touch setup->machine options->peripheral devices setup.  Then clear bv crc.

Will the same type of validator work in all the machines an if so does it have to be reset to that machine, I think that’s why I’m having the problem all the validators got mixed up

Yes and no.  IGT S2000/I-game validators use ID-024 and netplex communications.  Bally/WMS use ID-003 and RS-232 communications.  So if you put a Bally validator in an IGT machine it won't work.  But if you took a validator out of a S2000 and put it in an I-game it will work.  You may get a Bill Validator CRC mismatch if the firmware versions are different between the two validators.  If you do then you need to follow the directions above to clear the mismatch.
