Preface
Before using this information and the product it supports, please read the following general infor-
mation.
1. This Service Guide provides you with all technical information relating to the BASIC CON-
FIGURATION decided for GIGABYTE’s “global” product offering. To better t local market-
requirements and enhance product competitiveness, your regional ofce MAY have decided
toextend the functionality of a machine (e.g. add-on card, modem, or extra memory capabil-
ity).These LOCALIZED FEATURES will NOT be covered in this generic service guide. In
suchcases, please contact your regional ofces or the responsible personnel/channel to
provide youwith further technical details.
2. Please note WHEN ORDERING SPARE PARTS, you should check the most up-to-date
informationavailable on your regional web or channel. For whatever reason, if a part num-
ber change is made,it will not be noted in the printed Service Guide. For GIGABYTE-AU-
THORIZED SERVICEPROVIDERS, your GIGABYTE ofce may have a DIFFERENT part
number code to thosegiven in the FRU list of this printed Service Guide. You MUST use the
list provided by yourregional GIGABYTE ofce to order FRU parts for repair and service of
customer machines.

Chapter 1 Hardware Installation
1-1 Installation Precautions
The motherboard/system contain numerous delicate electronic circuits and components which
can become damaged as a result of electrostatic discharge (ESD). Prior to installation, carefully
read the service guide and follow these procedures:
• Prior to installation, do not remove or break motherboard S/N (Serial Number) sticker or
warranty sticker provided by your dealer. These stickers are required for warranty validation.
• Always remove the AC power by unplugging the power cord from the power outlet before
installing or removing the motherboard or other hardware components.
• When connecting hardware components to the internal connectors on the motherboard,
make sure they are connected tightly and securely.
• When handling the motherboard, avoid touching any metal leads or connectors.
• It is best to wear an electrostatic discharge (ESD) wrist strap when handling electronic com-
ponents such as a motherboard, CPU or memory. If you do not have an ESD wrist strap,
keep your hands dry and rst touch a metal object to eliminate static electricity.
• Prior to installing the motherboard, please have it on top of an antistatic pad or within an
electrostatic shielding container.
• Before unplugging the power supply cable from the motherboard, make sure the power sup-
ply has been turned off.
• Before turning on the power, make sure the power supply voltage has been set according to
the local voltage standard.
• Before using the product, please verify that all cables and power connectors of your hard-
ware components are connected.
• To prevent damage to the motherboard, do not allow screws to come in contact with the
motherboard circuit or its components.
• Make sure there are no leftover screws or metal components placed on the motherboard or
within the computer casing.
• Do not place the computer system on an uneven surface
• Do not place the computer system in a high-temperature environment.
• Turning on the computer power during the installation process can lead to damage to sys-
tem components as well as physical harm to the user.
• If you are uncertain about any installation steps or have a problem related to the use of the
product, please consult a certied computer technician.

Chapter 2 System Hardware Installation
Pre-installation Instructions
Perform the steps below before you open the server or before you remove or replaceany
component.
• Back up all important system and data les before performing any hardwareconguration.
• Turn off the system and all the peripherals connected to it.
• Locate the pin one of the CPU. The CPU cannot be inserted if oriented incorrectly. (Or you may
locate the notches on both sides of the CPU and alignment keys on the CPU socket.)
• Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the CPU.
• Do not turn on the computer if the CPU cooler is not installed, otherwise overheating and dam-
age of the CPU may occur.
• Set the CPU host frequency in accordance with the CPU specications. It is not recommended
that the system bus frequency be set beyond hardware specications since it does not meet the
standard requirements for the peripherals. If you wish to set the frequency beyond the standard
specications, please do so according to your hardware specications including the CPU, graphics card, memory, hard drive, etc.
