So i have a Z97 Gaming 7 from Msi (Manuel URL http://us.msi.com/support/mb/Z97-GAMING-7.html#down-manual ) and a i7-4790k(not overclocked) and I am getting the issue of the computer not getting past a postcode 71 or A2. The computer has been running for about 7 months with no problem.

The most common cause of this error (according to Google) is faulty RAM.

 

Try removing all but 1 stick then try again, if it boots replace it with another stick... rinse and repeat until you either find the faulty stick/s or you've tried them all and they all work.

Main Rig:-

Ryzen 7 3800X | Asus ROG Strix X570-F Gaming | 16GB Team Group Dark Pro 3600Mhz | Corsair MP600 1TB PCIe Gen 4 | Sapphire 5700 XT Pulse | Corsair H115i Platinum | WD Black 1TB | WD Green 4TB | EVGA SuperNOVA G3 650W | Asus TUF GT501 | Samsung C27HG70 1440p 144hz HDR FreeSync 2 | Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS |
