My PC is failing to post, stuck on code A2 which is IDE Detect in the motherboard manual. there are also leds that flash and it fails on the DIAGH_CPU. the other leds come on go off then this one flashes briefly just before the pc shuts down and tries agin.
The PC starts up, the screen shows Preparing Auto Repair then it just shuts down and tries again and so on in a loop.
I'm not a computer person so this is all new to me, I'm looking for someone to help me understand whats failing here or what needs replacing. It's stripped down to just the GPU and a stick of ram and the HD. Any help appreciated, just knowing hat the IDE is? Google is not being of much help.
