So here's what I'm running:
ASRock Z97 EXTREME6 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Intel Core i5-4460 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
Corsair Builder 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
EVGA GeForce GTX 980 4GB Superclocked ACX 2.0 Video Card
So, the story: got everything hooked up, powered on, and yay! It booted! But it wouldn't let me access the BIOS, I just kept getting an error about "Reboot and select boot disk", or something to that effect. Read on the forums to try removing the CMOS battery, so I did that. Tried booting again and that did the trick, I got into BIOS. I have an SSD hooked up but I'm going to be installing Windows 8 from USB - so while I was in the BIOS, I went to select USB as the Boot Disk #1, and it doesn't show up. Only the SSD. I thought I'd try rebooting it. Now when I turn it on, though, I just keep getting error A2 on my motherboard.
Please help, I'm really at a loss here. I tried unplugging the SSD and then I got error 99. So I'm stuck in a cycle of errors. I did try removing the CMOS battery one more time but that didn't do anything.
Any suggestions would be great, thank you!
