Ok thank you. I will try this and report back soon. Thanks for all the support guys.

After taking the CMOS battery out I still received the A2 Code and the Boot Device LED is still on as well. So disconnect all of the drives completely and start the system with no drives plugged in? Or unplug all then re-plug them all back in then try?

I cleared the RTC Memory and still nothing, just a hang. My Boot Device LED is on and steady red. The QCode is now displaying A2 after re-seating the CPU and running off of integrated graphics. And the RAM modules have been taken out and re-seated.

Yea hitting F2 does nothing lol Its very frustrating considering I just used it not even 4 days ago and it was running just fine. I tried booting with only one stick of RAM and still nothing. I will try Integrated graphics again though, just as a safe measure. How would I reset BIOS if I can't boot into it also. I don't see a switch on the MOBO. Thank you for the response. I will try this method and report back here. I hope my MOBO hasn't gone bad as I have no warranty on it since it was bought used from a friend.

I recently went to turn on my PC and the worst thing happens, I can't boot into Winows or even the BIOS. I have an Asus Z97 Pro WiFi MOBO, 8GB of standard RAM, GTX 960 FTW Edition GPU, i5 4440 CPU with CoolerMaster heatsink on it and a 1TB Western Digital HDD. I used the computer maybe 4 days ago and it worked perfectly fine, I went to boot it up today and it just hangs at the "Press Del or F2 to enter BIOS" screen. All fans are up and running, GPU fans are running spinning just fine. Power, HDD and other connectors are plugged in correctly, I reseated the RAM a couple times as well as the GPU and still nothing. Not being able to get into the BIOS is very frustrasting. I am getting the error code of 99 on the QCODE display which in the manual refers to "Super IO Initialization" I could not find much GOOD information on this code and am wondering has had a similar problem or advice they can give me.
