I got this motherboard Wednesday and it's been nothing but problems and I can not find a reliable source of info so this forum is my last hope. I will start with the very first thing that has been happening and that's even from default settings in the bios it tries to boot with out success (the default was set to 6 till I figured it out and changed it to 2) then throws up a screen saying it couldn't boot with current settings reverting to default and remember I said it does this even on default settings. it also then throws up in the lower right what I am guessing are the bios error codes and those are A2, B4 and 98. I have not found any way of looking up what they mean for this mother board. Right now I have taken it down to basics a WD 1 TB M.2 SSD and 32 gb ram. I have been trying to load M.2 Optane but it wont load the programing in windows, it says "you current motherboard settings will not allow this". I have been building my own rigs for a long time and I have had some give me problems but this thing and the lack of knowledge resources is very upsetting. You are my last hope Obiwan, if any body knows anything that could help I'd be most grateful, thank you.]]> Mon, 29 Mar 2021 05:13:16 +0000 https://forum.asrock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=18490&PID=84992&title=z490-steel-legend-error-codes#84992
