    Not really a problem but I got a new corsair k70 keyboard and every time I boot up the pc I get a black screen with the letters A2 appearing in the bottom right hand corner, I simply press enter and the pc re boots and works away no problem. Any reason why it could be doing this?

    I fixed mine as well. The A2 code no longer shows. All I did was update the BIOS of the motherboard. I think the problems was with the Krait not detecting my 850 Evo properly.
    My problems were solved when I switched my keyboard to a different USB slot.

    My guess is you may have it in a USB3.0 port, if so, shove it in a 2.0 port instead.

    Hmmm this is a weird one. Nothing seems to fix it. Not really a problem though more of an annoyance.

    Have you tried changing the position of the BIOS switch beside the braided lead, just over the F9 key?

    It switches the keyboards refresh rate for increased compatibility with BIOS' and motherboards. I had a problem with the scroll lock flashing on mine, IIRC changed the switch to position 2 sorted it.

    Easily done, if I recall theres little or no mention of the switch in the manual either. Not that I tend to read them much anyway. :)
