When you installing AGP card, please make sure the following
notice is fully understood and practiced. If your AGP card has
"AGP 4X(1.5V) notch"(show below), please make sure your AGP
card is AGP 4X(1.5V).
Caution: AGP 2X(3.3V) card is not supported by Intel® 845(GE/PE) /
845(E/G) / 850(E). You might experience system unable to boot up
normally. Please insert an AGP 4X(1.5V) 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).
The GA-8PE667 Ultra/GA-8PE667 Pro(or any AGP 4X only)
motherboards might not function properly, if you install this card without
switching the jumper to 4X(1.5) mode in it.
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(3.3V)/4X(1.5V) mode AGP slot,
but they support 2X(3.3V) only. The GA-8PE667 Ultra/GA-8PE667 Pro
(or any AGP 4X only) motherboards might not function properly, If you
install this card in it.
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) based motherboards.
Before you install PCI cards, please remove the Dual BIOS
label from PCI slots if there is one.

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.

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation Process
To set up your computer, you must complete the following steps:
Step 1- Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
Step 2- Install memory modules
Step 3- Install expansion cards
Step 4- Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires, and power supply
Step 5- Setup BIOS software
Step 6- Install supporting software tools

4. 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.

Step 1-2 : CPU Heat Sink Installation
English
1. Fasten the heatsink supporting-base
onto the CPU socket on the
mainboard.
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.
2. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to
the CPU fan connector, than install
complete.
- 11 -Hardware Installation Process
Step 2: Install memory modules
The motherboard has 3 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets, but it can only support a
maximum of 4 banks of DDR memory. DDR sockets 1 uses 2 banks, DDR sockets 2&3 share the
English
remaining 2 banks. Please refer to the following tables for possible memory configurations supported.
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.
Notes: Double-sided x16 DDR memory devices are not support by Intel 845E/G /PE/GE chipset.
DDR1DDR2DDR3
SSS
DSS
DDX
DXD
SDX
SXD
DDR
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.
When STR/DIMM LED is ON, do not install/remove DIMM from socket.
Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to
the two notches. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation.
Please change the insert orientation.
- 12 -GA-8PE667Ultra /Pro Motherboard
Step 3: Install expansion cards
1. Read the related expansion card’s instruction document before install the expansion card into
the computer.
2. Remove your computer’s chassis cover, necessary 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.
Please carefully pull out the small whitedrawable bar at the end of the AGP slot
when you try to install/ Uninstall the AGP
card. Please align the AGP card to the
AGP Card
onboard AGP slot and press firmly down on
the slot .Make sure your AGP card is locked
by the small white- drawable bar.
English
When an AGP 2x (3.3V) card is installed the AGP_LED will light up, indicating a non-supported
graphics card is inserted. Informing users that system might not boot up normally due to AGP 2x
(3.3V) is not supported by the chipset.

When using PCI cards on Shared slots, ensure that the drivers support "Shared IRQ" or that the
cards do'nt need IRQ assignments. Otherwise, conflicts will arise between the two PCI groups,
making the system unstable and the card inoperative.
