Gigabyte GA-8IE2004-L, GA-8IE2004 User Manual [ru]

When you installing AGP card, please make sure the following

notice is fully understood and practiced. If your AGP card has "AGP

4X notch"(show below), please make sure your AGP card is AGP 4X

(1.5V).

Caution: AGP 2X card is not supported by Intel® 845(GE/PE) / 845(E/

G) / 850(E) / E7205 / 865(G/PE/P) / 875P. You might experience system

unable to boot up normally. Please insert an AGP 4X/8X card.

Example 1: Diamond Vipper V770 golden finger is compatible with 2X/4X

mode AGP slot. It can be switched between AGP 2X(3.3V) or 4X (1.5V) mode

by adjusting the jumper. The factory default for this card is 2X (3.3V). If you

install this card in GA-8IE2004 Series (or any AGP 4X/8X only) motherboards

without switching the jumper to 4X mode (1.5V), it will burn the motherboard.

Example 2: Some ATi Rage 128 Pro graphics cards made by "Power Color",

the graphics card manufacturer & some SiS 305 cards, their golden finger is

compatible with 2X/4X mode AGP slot, but they support 2X (3.3V) only. If you

install this card in GA-8IE2004 Series (or any AGP 4X/8X only) motherboards,

it will burn the motherboard.

Note : Although Gigabyte's AG32S(G) graphics card is based on ATi Rage

128 Pro chip, the design of AG32S(G) is compliance with AGP 4X (1.5V)

specification. Therefore, AG32S(G) will work fine with Intel® 845(GE/PE) / 845

(E/G) / 850(E) / E7205 / 865(G/PE/P) / 875P based motherboards.

protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you
work on your computer.

WARNING!

1. Unplug your computer when working on the inside.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one, touch
both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply
case.

3. Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other
components.

4. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components
whenever the components are separated from the system.

5. Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX power
connector on the motherboard.

Installing the motherboard to the chassis...

If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don't line up with the holes on the base and there are
no slots to attach the spacers, do not become alarmed you can still attach the spacers to the mounting
holes. Just cut the bottom portion of the spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful of
your hands). In this way you can still attach the motherboard to the base without worrying about short
circuits. Sometimes you may need to use the plastic springs to isolate the screw from the motherboard
PCB surface, because the circuit wire may be near by the hole. Be careful, don't let the screw contact
any printed circuit write or parts on the PCB that are near the fixing hole, otherwise it may damage the
board or cause board malfunctioning.

HT functionality requirement content :

Enabling the functionality of Hyper-Threading Technology for your computer system requires all

of the following platform components:

- CPU: An Intel

- Chipset: An Intel

- BIOS: A BIOS that supports HT Technology and has it enabled

- OS: An operation system that has optimizations for HT Technology

Please set the CPU host frequency in accordance with your processor's specifications.

We don't recommend you to set the system bus frequency over the CPU's specification because

these specific bus frequencies are not the standard specifications for CPU, chipset and most of the

peripherals. Whether your system can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will

depend on your hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets, SDRAM, Cards…etc.

Step 1-1: CPU Installation

Before installing the processor, adhere to the following warning:

1. Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.

2. If you do not match the CPU socket Pin 1 and CPU cut edge well, it will

cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.

Angling the

rod to 65

1. Angling the rod to 65-degree maybe feel a

kind of tight , and then continue pull the rod to

Step 1-2: CPU Heat Sink Installation

Before installing the CPU cooling fan, adhere to the following warning:

1. Please use Intel approved cooling fan.

2. We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat

conduction between your CPU and cooling fan.

(The CPU cooling fan might stick to the CPU due to the hardening of

the thermal paste. During this condition if you try to remove the cool-

ing fan, you might pull the processor out of the CPU socket alone with

the cooling fan, and might damage the processor. To avoid this from

happening, we suggest you to either use thermal tape instead of

thermal paste, or remove the cooling fan with extreme caution.)

3.Make sure the CPU fan power cable is plugged in to the CPU fan

connector, this completes the installation.

Please refer to CPU cooling fan user's manual for more detail

installation procedure.

English

1. Fasten the cooling fan supporting-

base onto the CPU socket on the

motherboard.

Hardware Installation Process

Step 2: Install Memory Modules

English

The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automatically
detects memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the DIMM
socket. The DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the notch. Memory size can vary
between sockets.

Before installing the memory modules, adhere to the following warning:

1. When DIMM LED is ON, do not install / remove DIMM from socket.

2. Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to
the one notch. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation.
Please change the insert orientation.

Notch

DDR

GA-8IE2004 Series Motherboard

1. The DIMM socket has a notch, so the DIMM memory
module can only fit in one direction.

2. Insert the DIMM memory module vertically into the DIMM
socket. Then push it down.

3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM sockets to
lock the DIMM module.
Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove
the DIMM module.

DDR Introduction

Established on the existing SDRAM infrastructure, DDR (Double Data Rate) memory is a high

performance and cost-effective solution that allows easy adoption for memory vendors, OEMs, and

system integrators.

DDR memory is a great evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing

SDRAM architecture, yet make the awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck

by doubling the memory bandwidth. Nowadays, with the highest bandwidth of 3.2GB/s of DDR400

memory and complete line of DDR400/333/266/200 memory solutions, DDR memory is the best

choice for building high performance and low latency DRAM subsystem that are suitable for servers,

workstations, and full range of desktop PCs.

2. Remove your computer's chassis cover, screws and slot bracket from the computer.

3. Press the expansion card firmly into expansion slot in motherboard.

4. Be sure the metal contacts on the card are indeed seated in the slot.

5. Replace the screw to secure the slot bracket of the expansion card.

6. Replace your computer's chassis cover.

7. Power on the computer, if necessary, setup BIOS utility of expansion card from BIOS.

8. Install related driver from the operating system.

AGP Card

Please carefully pull out the small white-drawable

bar at the end of the AGP slot when you try to

install / uninstall the AGP card. Please align the

AGP card to the onboard AGP slot and press

firmly down on the slot. Make sure your AGP

card is locked by the small white-drawable bar.

When an AGP 2X (3.3V) card is installed the 2X_DET will light up, indicating a non-supported

graphics card is inserted. Informing users that system might not boot up normally due to
