**EDIT: Ok, so I removed my GPU and everything is working fine. I suppose I will install Windows once I get the disk, then power off and re-install my GPU and go from there. That error couldn't have been caused by a faulty GPU could it?**
Hello,
Long-time reader, first time poster.
Yesterday I went out and bought all the parts for my first gaming computer and set-it up. After many many hours, it was working.
I originally had it set-up to display to my Vizio HDTV (DVI->HDMI). The BIOS screen would pop-up and ask to use a boot disk or what not. This worked for a while. Eventually, upon powering it on later no display would come up at all. I read that sometimes it won't display on an HDTV until you get Windows installed, I went and borrowed a monitor from my parents, monitor states no DVI signal.
On the Dr. Debug I'm getting error A2 - I hit Del/any other key mostly and it will change to A6. I've tried the following:
Clear CMOS (MANY times).
Power off, take out CMOS battery and place it back in.
Use 1 stick RAM, take out both RAM's, re-seat RAM.
Re-seat graphics card.
Unplug and re-build entire system.
I am about to get a copy of Windows 7, I have an SSD and optical drive plugged in to install but, if I place the Windows 7 installer disk in will it automatically bring up an install screen or is there something wrong that I need to fix first? I'm very confused as to why it would work, and then stop working later.
Specs:
ASRock Z77 Extreme 4
Intel i5-3750K
Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (2X 4GB)
Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo
Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950
Seasonic 650W power supply
Samsung 840 Series SSD 128GB
Samsung Optical Drive
Thank you for all help given!
