Memory speed and boot problems

[jamesfindlay3]

In my PC I have an asrock ab350m pro 4 that can support memory upto 3200 and maybe more. I have 16gb of corsair lpx 3000mhz ram and this is compatible with my ryzen 5 cpu. I have only been able to get the ram upto 2666mhz before the motherboard fails to boot. Why would this be happining and how will I be able to push my memory upto 3000 or even better overclock to 3200 if at all possible. Any help would be great and thanks a lot!

Have you tried to re-set the memory in the motherboard slots? Also is the ram in the recommended slots for the motherboard?
