When you installing AGP card, please make sure the

following notice is fully understood 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® 850 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-8ITXE (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-8ITXE (or any AGP

4X only) motherboards, it will burn the motherboard.

Before you install PCI cards, please remove the Dual BIOS

label from PCI slots if there is one.

WARNING!

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.

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 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.

Installing the motherboard to the chassis…

 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.

CPU Installation

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

Pin1 indicator Pin1indicator

CPU Top View CPU Bottom View

Socket Actuation Lever

1. Pull up the CPU socket level

and up to 90-degree angle.

Pin1 indicator

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.

3. Press down the CPU socket lever and

finish CPU installation.

 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.

Hardware Installation Process

CPU Heat Sink Installation

1. Fasten the heatsink supporting-base

onto the CPU socket on the main-

board.

2. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged

to the CPU fan connector, than

install complete.

 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.

Step 2: Install memory modules

The motherboard has 4 Rambus In-line Memory Module (RIMM) sockets. The BIOS will automati-

cally detect memory type and size. To install the memory module, just push it vertically into the

RIMM Slot .The RIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the two notches. Please note; Both

RIMM modules inserted on RIMM1 and RIMM3 slots are recommended to have the same size,

frequency. If not, the larger sized module will l be automatically re-sized by BIOS to match the

smaller sized module. The same rule applies to both RIMM2 and RIMM4 slots.

You can insert two RIMMs or four RIMMs into RIMM slots, but C-RIMM (Continuity RIMM)

modules must be inserted into the empty slots.

Push the ejector tab towards the RIMM.

 When STR/RIMM LED is ON, you do not install / remove RDRAM from socket.

RIMM CRIMM

Check RIMM module if it is supported by the

M/B.

Insert the RIMM module into the slot.

 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.

The category identifies the types of hard disk from drive C to F that has been installed in the

computer. There are two types: auto type, and manual type. Manual type is user-definable; Auto

type which will automatically detect HDD type.

Note that the specifications of your drive must match with the drive table. The hard disk will not work

properly if you enter improper information for this category.

If you select User Type, related information will be asked to enter to the following items. Enter the

information directly from the keyboard and press <Enter>. Such information should be provided in

the documentation form your hard disk vendor or the system manufacturer.

Virus Protection

If it is set to enable, the category will flash on the screen when there is any attempt to write to the boot

sector or partition table of the hard disk drive. The system will halt and the following error message will

appear in the mean time. You can run anti-virus program to locate the problem.

Enabled Activate automatically when the system boots up causing a warning message to

appear when anything attempts to access the boot sector or hard disk partition table

Disabled No warning message to appear when anything attempts to access the boot sector

or hard disk partition table (Default Value)

Memory

The category is display-only which is determined by POST (Power On Self Test) of the BIOS.

Base Memory

The POST of the BIOS will determine the amount of base (or conventional) memory

installed in the system.

The value of the base memory is typically 512 K for systems with 512 K memory

installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640 K or more memory

installed on the motherboard.

Other Memory

This refers to the memory located in the 640 K to 1024 K address space. This is

memory that can be used for different applications.

DOS uses this area to load device drivers to keep as much base memory free for

application programs. Most use for this area is Shadow RAM.

Extended Memory

The BIOS determines how much extended memory is present during the POST.

This is the amount of memory located above 1 MB in the CPU’s memory

address map.
