Gigabyte GA-8PE800 PRO-R Manual

When you installingAGP card, please make sure the following notice is fully understood and practiced. If yourAGP 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-8PE800 Ultra / GA-8PE800 Pro(-R) (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-8PE800 Ultra / GA-8PE800 Pro(-R)

(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.

Computer motherboards and expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on yourcomputer.

1.Unplug your computer when working on the inside.

2.Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. Ifyou 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 othercomponents.

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 m otherboard.

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 ofthe spacers (the spacer may be a little hard to cut off, so be careful ofyour 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 circuitwrite or parts on the PCB thatare 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® Pentium 4 Processor with HT Technology

-Chipset: An Intel® Chipset that supports HT Technology

-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: Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)

Before installing the processor , adhere to the following warning:

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.

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

Step 1-2 : CPU Heat Sink Installation

Before installing the CPU Heat Sink , 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 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.)

3.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.

Step 2: Install memory modules

Before installing the processor and heatsink, adhere to the following warning:

When 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 one notches. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation. Please change the insert orientation.

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 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.

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

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

3. Close the plastic clip at both edges of the DIMM slots to lock the DIMM module.

Reverse the installation steps when you wish to remove the DIMM module.

DDR Introduction

Established on the existing SDRAM industry 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 sensible evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing SDRAM infrastructure, yet makes awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck by doubling the memory bandwidth. DDR SDRAM will offer a superior solution and migration path from existing SDRAM designs due to its availability, pricing and overall market support. PC2100 DDR memory (DDR266) doubles the data rate through reading and writing at both the rising and falling edge of the clock, achieving data bandwidth 2X greater than PC133 when running with the same DRAM clock frequency. With peak bandwidth of 2.664GB per second, DDR memory enables system OEMs to build high performance and low latency DRAM subsystems that are suitable for servers, workstations, high-end PC's and value desktop SMA systems. With a core voltage of only 2.5 Volts compared to conventional SDRAM's 3.3 volts, DDR memory is a compelling solution for small form factor desktops and notebook applications.

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 outthe 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

AGP Card the onboard AGP slot and press firmly down on the slot

.Make sure yourAGP card is locked by the small whitedrawable 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 AGP 2x (3.3V) is not supported by the chipset.
