I just built my system last night with the following memory kit,

G.Skill TridentZ Series 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR4 3733

At first The XMP profile seemed to be working perfectly I had no issues it was booting into bios fine restarting fine no issues (there was no OS at this point though) While I was waiting for my USB installation media to finish being created I decided to update the bios to the new 2.50. Since then the xmp profile to set the memory at the stock clock of 3733 causes the board not to boot and fail then ask me to enter the bios and change the settings.

anyone know of a good way of resolving this issue? Even if it's rolling back a BIOS ver I don't mind.

Thanks for the assistance.

You can back-flash so long as you have a stable system. Use the Instant Flash method and file.

Thanks War, This is my first ASRock so I wasn't sure what features were available. (Yet)

Yes the system is stable as long as I use the auto settings. With Auto I installed windows drivers the whole nine no problem. I'll give that a go tonight. Much appreciated.
