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).
Do not use AGP 2X card (3.3V) in this mother board. It will
burn and damage the motherboard due to Intel® 845 (E/G)/
Intel® 850(E) chipset can't support AG P 2X(3.3V).
Example 1: Diamond Vipper V770 golden finger is compatible
with 2X/4X mode AGP slot. It can be switched betw een 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 GA8IEX series(or any AGP 4X only) motherboards w ithout
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 GA8IEX series (or any AGP 4X only) motherboards, it will burn the
motherboard.
Note : Although Gigabyte's AG32S(G) graphics card is based on
A Ti 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(E/G) / 850(E) based motherboards.
Before you install PCI cards, please remove the Dual BIOS
label from PCI slots if ther e is one.
