MSI z77 keep restarting

Hi guys my PC was running fine. Just from no where it shutdown and it keeps on restarting even before the boot screen I tried everything changing bios and clearing CMOS but same thing I can't go in to bios. It's just keep on restarting or when it doesn't restart the screen just go black with A2 written in one corner.

According to this link, A2 error is to do with issues detecting HDD/SSD

Maybe unplug your HDD/SSD just to see if the error goes away ? Then it's a case of trying your drives one by one (Assuming you have more than one storage drive)

Is it getting as far as BIOS?
Can you boot into BIOS and it stay on?

I had that problem with mine after a failed bios update, have you tried recovering using a usb key to flash it?

Is the storage controller in IDE when it should be in AHCI?

I can't go in to bios at all so can't check or change any settings
