*update* when it freezes on windows screen then monitor goes off i can unplug my Hdmi and reconnect and it loads windows, im very confused here, the only changes i done was install input mapper and plugged in two ps4 controllers for first time

Yea imma go ahead and download win 10 and upgrade and see if that fixes it, my best guess is using 2 ps4 controllers together with usb created a conflict which caused a crash which damaged window start up files, deff tricky to figure out im still new to pc's this is my first build. Im just glad i didnt fry anything lol thanks blackbird for your help

Hi, was running into the same issue kind of. The A2 error was surprisingly caused by a Fanatec force feed back steering wheel for racing games. If i left it turned on during a boot, It hangs at A2 until i turn the wheel off. As soon as I turn off the wheel it finished booting. I will add that it was a very frustrating couple weeks until i figured this out. I had tried a bunch of different hard drives and boot priorities and stuff of thatr nature, just to notice it booted fine one day and realized i had unplugged the wheel.
