Try only one stick of RAM also guys 55 is often related to the second dimm channel. A2 is not normally a problem its just telling you what mode the disk controller is in e.g A2 AHCI A3 IDE etc etc .
Yeah I would go in this direction as well.
55 often happens to me swapping some ripjaws on 1.7V with trident (both PSC based, one optimized for lower vcore, the other one eating it)
reproducable many times and the fix is always the same.
swap rams --> "55" --> clear cmos --> "55" power down manually --> only use 1 dimm in first red channel to the CPU socket --> power on --> bios --> set 1.7V and load loose PSC profile --> restart --> bios --> power down --> insert second dimm --> works
I think "55" is something deep into memory timings not beeing compatible between either pre-setting and your ram or the first boot-up with whatever it wants to load.
As for "A2" I just had a bad experience with my OCZ Petrol SSD. These drives are cheap, but die like flies.
This can definitly cause "A2". My drive died during cool-down and on every 2nd boot I got "A2" --> swapped the SSD to some old Mushkin with no idea what controller and called it a day. Occured as soon as I exceeded 106 BCLK...not sure if this was the reason or just bad timing.
So for "A2" on reboots or in general might check your disk (SSD) just to narrow it down.
