So this is the 3rd time I have had this issue. I don't know why it keeps happening but I have RMA'd my motherboard twice already. This time I only got about a month of use out it, and the time before that I got 6 months, and my initial build I got about a month. I have no idea why my computer won't work. I'll link my other threads to give someone hopefully a better idea.
I have RMAd my RAM from when I mentioned in a previous thread that had a lot of errors. Anyway the cause this time is unknown, my computer wasn't giving me a BSOD's or anything, just one of my games had freezing (just in the game) but alt tabbing back into the game fixed it. But it started becoming too frequent of a problem so I decided to restart my computer thinking maybe it might help. Now it won't start and my motherboard is giving the code A2 which I believe happened last time. At this point I'm at a complete loss. I have work I need to be doing and this is out of control so if anyone can help please do. The titles screen to that says press F2 or DEL to enter BIOS comes up but I cannot enter BIOS.
