you can update bio's by a usb flash drive stick f2 error is mainly due to bios or pc memory try update to latest bios,
Also i have read something about cpu giving this f2 error code but without knowing your full system specs it'll be harder for users to pin point the problem. i would think its bios try updating it but be warned latest bios is a nightmare from what i have read.

Hello Crim welcome to the forum.
Please have a look at the white sicker that will be found near the SATA ports and the 24pin power connector. Look at the last 4 digits, that will be the shipping BIOS.
To run an Ivy-bridge CPU you will need a 3 series BIOS. Ideally you should follow the BIOS flashing guide I have linked to in my sig.
Will check back a little later to see what the shipping BIOS is on your board.

Checked it and its not a 3 series, it's 0402, so i'm guessing its time to flash.
Wish me the best of luck becasue this will be risky !

Here is the port you need to use.
