BIOS updating

Thanks Wardog..................and all.............

After going through all the helpful links and advice given have come to the conclusion that this procedure is too far out of my comfort zone.............I doubt I could get it right, so have decided to go   old school on this:
I have removed the EVO 960, because it would end up  as the Ferarri in the garage that never gets used, I will set the BIOS back to default, and go with the Samsung 850Pro 256GB I have for the boot drive and the Firecuda 1TB for storage.............This level I can deal with, and have to just concede that I have a lot to learn yet before thinking about going for the M.2 boot option, but one day.....................
So just to say, I appreciate enormously the help that you lot have tried to give, I can`t help feeling I am letting you down!
So at least hopefuly I will be able to play with my new Ryzen set up and enjoy learning that, and just eat humble pie for now.....
So thanks again all, you are a sterling crew..........

Sorry Wardog,I cannot see the link you mention for the drivers.............

Installed win 10. BIOS in UEFI as suggested...............But it has installed to UEFI EFI shell and ignored the M.2.............Not impressed with that...............How do I get the M.2 to be boot disk? It is nominated as boot in boot sequence etc, but just comes up with no OS found so have to go back to EFI...............Should I just start again and choose legacy mode?

Unfortunately it is not 100% true to avoid ASRock for DLs.  I discovered the hard way (non-recognized NIC), that the drivers for the X399 Aquantia (AQC107) NIC must be DLed from ASRock DL page.  ASRock has modified these drivers and the ones from the Aquantia site do not even recognize the AQC107.  I do not care for this process but that is how it is.  Enjoy, John.

forget the asrock website - get the chipsetdriver directly from AMD
