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-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
your computer.
Installing the motherboard to the chassis…
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.
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.
If the motherboard has mounting holes, but they don’t line up with the holes on the base and there

Step 1: Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)
English
Step 1-1: CPU Installation
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.
Angling the

1. Angling the rod to 65-degree maybe feel a
kind of tight , and then continue pull the rod

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.
English
1. Fasten the heatsink supporting-base
onto the CPU socket on the
mainboard.
2. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to
the CPU fan connector, than install
complete.
- 13 -Hardware Installation Process
Step 2: Install memory modules
English
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.
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.
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 m odule.
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.
