Hero VII stuck at Q-Code A0

[Raich]

I got this new build a few weeks back, it worked fine for about a week then it started not booting, screens dont come on and the Q-Code is stuck at A0. Only way ive gotten past it is CMOS clear and then i can perhaps use it normally for about a day.

It's not always the CMOS clear helps either, ive had to do it 2-3 times over in some cases to get any kind of post screen.

Ive been building my own rigs for 18 years, this one however got me a bit stumped. Ive tried removing hard drives with no luck so now im really wondering what the issue is. Do i have a bad board?

Using Latest bios, it seems like it goes through the post lfrom looking at the Q-Code until A0 or A2 but it stops there with not screen signal. gfx card (780 TI).

Also i noticed the usb keyboard seems to flicker a bit.

Is this possibly a bios issue/bug?
Using 1104 right now, but considering this started possibly after the bios update i did a few weeks back im currently thinking that might be the culprit.

I have the same board and it is working perfectly fine. I'm also getting A0 q code.

A0 codes means IDE initialization is started.
Strange enough, we don't even use IDE.

Do you atleast hear windows logon sound even when you don't have picture on your screen?
A0 is normal QCode that means that UEFI BIOS handed operation to OS.

If you need to do several restarts to get picture on your screen thats GPU.

RMA it or try stress test it via FurMark or AIDA64.

Did you load optimized defaults in bios after you did the bios update? This is a required step after updating bios.
