RAM and Motherboard Problems

[Wolfamelon]

Hey guys, ive been having some issues with my motherboard and ram.

So ive got the ASRock X370 Gaming K4 (with a Ryzen 1700) and 8GB (2x4) of corsair ram thats clocked at 2400MHz. I just built the pc today, popped windows on it and all was good in the world. I was browsing through the bios when I saw that the memory was running at 2133 instead of 2400. I changed it to 2400, rebooted and... it wouldn't boot. Gave me a 0d error on Dr Debug (The 2 little letters/numbers).

 

Ive cleared the CMOS via the header and jumped, and also removed the battery for a while. Both failed me and it still wont boot. The RGB on the motherboard is still doing what i set it to through windows so I have a feeling its somehow retaining information still. Any help would be appreciated, I'm stumped and this is not how i intended my first build to go.

Try flashing your BIOS. The default Ryzen bios's are horrible for memory and have been substantially improved upon with subsequent bios releases.

Well after leaving the computer off with the bios battery out for an hour. Plugging everything back in, it booted. I moved the ram into slots 2&4 instead of 1&3 but i doubt that was the problem. Lesson learn, don't mess with Ryzen RAM. Ill defintely look into flashing the bios at some point so thanks for the suggestion.
