When you installing AGP card, please make sure the following notice is fullyunderstood 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 motherboard. It will
burn and damage the motherboard due to Intel® 845 chipset can't support AGP 2X(3.3V)..
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-8IRM series (or any AGP 4X only) motherboards without switching the jumper to 4X mode (1.5V), it will burn the motherboard.
Example 2: ATi Rage 128 Pro (Power Color)& SiS 305 golden finger is compatible with 2X/4X mode AGP slot, but it supports 2X(3.3V) only. If you install this card in GA-8IRM series (or any AGP 4X only) motherboards, it will burn the motherboard.
Note : Although Gigabyte's AG32S graphics card is based on ATi Rage 128 Pro chip, the design of AG32S is compliance with AGP 4X (1.5V) specification. Therefore, AG32S will work fine with Intel 845 / 850 based motherboards.

WARNING!
WARNING!
Computer motherboards and ex pansion cards contain v ery delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity , y ou should follow some precautions whenev er y ou work on y our computer.
1.Unplug y our computer when working on the inside.
2.Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If y ou do not hav e
one, touch both of y our 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 whenev er the components are separated from the sy stem.
5.Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before y ou plug in or remov e the ATX power connector on the motherboard.
Installing the motherboard to the chassis…
If themotherboard 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 y ou 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 y our hands). In this way y ou can still attach the motherboard to the base without worry ing about short circuits. Sometimes y ou 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 fix ing hole, otherwise it may damage the board or cause board malfunctioning.

Whether y our sy stem can run under these specific bus frequencies properly will depend on y our hardware configurations, including CPU, Chipsets,SDRAM,Cards… .etc.

1.Pull up the CPU socket lev er and up to 90-degree angle.
3.Press down the CPU socket lev er and finish CPU installation.
2.Locate Pin 1 in the socket and look for a (golden) cut edge on the CPU upper corner. Then insert the CPU into the socket.
?Please make sure the CPU type is supported by the motherboard.
?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.

|
socket. |
?Please use Intel approved cooling fan.
?We recommend you to apply the thermal tape to provide better heat conduction between your CPU and heatsink.
(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 cooling 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.)
?Make sure the CPU fan power cable is plugged in to the CPU fan connector, this completes the installation.
?Please refer to CPU heat sink user’s manual for more detail installation procedure.
