Rog Strix Z690-A Gaming D4 bios version 4101 problem!!

Good evening everyone, I'm having some problems with my motherboard's bios and I'm trying to figure it out. Recently, as I have done in the past, I updated the bios to the latest version released.Since the settings have returned to default, I tried at least to customize those of interest to me, that is, select the XMP profile to configure my DDR 4 memories at their maximum frequency (Corsair Venegance RGB RS 2x32GB - 3600Mhz).

After inserting the aforementioned changes, I save everything and the PC restarts. In the loading phase to return to the operating system, it then gets stuck in the boot sequence where the installed components are listed. At the bottom, I get a warning that the system has entered "safe mode" as it has become unstable. To continue, I have to return to the bios by clicking on the F1 key, advising me to return to the default settings.I also noticed that in the main screen of my bios I have the tab at the top that has changed from "Extreme Tweaker" to "Ai Tweaker).

Is anyone familiar with this type of UEFI Bios? Could you help me understand what to do?

I have already tried to do a CMOS but it was practically useless.

Hi @TargetingPod 

The system is entering Safe Mode due to failing memory training, meaning the overclock is now unstable. New BIOS can bring updated ME firmware and CPU ucode, which can result in changes that impact overclocking.

It sounds like you're combining memory kits, which isn't supported by the motherboard or memory vendors. Please remove one kit and use a single memory kit.
