Epox will not post

[dexblog]

I have an Epox EP-8RDA Pro, in which I just bought to replace my old 8RDA with the compacitor problem. I turn the power on and it comes up F2 and that is it. I have pulled everything off of the board and replaced them one by one with out any difference, I have also replaced the power supply with a brand new one, that changed the code from FF to F2. The manual doesn't even have the F2 code listed. Anybody have any clue what F2 means?

Please list your complete system specs and the process you went thru to replace the mobo.

The old MB started throwing an FF and wouldn't post. I bought a new MB and it threw the same code, so I replace the power supply which changed it to F2
