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.

4.

5.

Hold components by the edges and try not touch the IC chips, leads or connectors, or other components.

Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system.

Ensure that the ATX power supply is switched off before you plug in or remove the ATX power connector on the motherboard.

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 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.

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, Memory, 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- Install I/O Peripherals Cables

Step 4 Step 1 Step 2

Step 4

Step 3

Step 4

Congratulations! You have accomplished the hardware installation!

Turn on the power supply or connect the power cable to the power outlet. Continue with the

BIOS/software installation.

GA-8I848PM(-FS) Motherboard - 8 -

Step 1: Install the Central Processing Unit (CPU)

Before installing the processor, adhere to the following warning:

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

2. 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 1-1: CPU Installation

Angling the rod to 65

0

Socket

Actuation

Lever

1. Angling the rod to 65-degree maybe feel a kind of tight , and then continue pull the rod to 90-degree when a noise

"cough" made.

2. Pull the rod to the 90-degree directly.

Pin1 indicator

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.

Hardware Installation Process

Step 1-2: CPU Cooling Fan Installation

Before installing the CPU cooling fan, 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 cooling fan.

(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 cooling fan user's manual for more detail installation procedure.

1. Fasten the cooling fan supportingbase onto the CPU socket on the motherboard.

2. Make sure the CPU fan is plugged to the CPU fan connector, than install complete.

GA-8I848PM(-FS) Motherboard - 10 -

Step 2: Install Memory Modules

Before installing the memory modules, adhere to the following warning:

1. Please note that the DIMM module can only fit in one direction due to the one notch. Wrong orientation will cause improper installation.

Please change the insert orientation.

The motherboard has 2 dual inline memory module (DIMM) sockets. 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.

Notch

DDR

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.

- 11 Hardware Installation Process

DDR Introduction

Established on the existing SDRAM 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 great evolutionary solution for the PC industry that builds on the existing

SDRAM architecture, yet make the awesome advances in solving the system performance bottleneck by doubling the memory bandwidth. Nowadays, with the highest bandwidth of

3.2GB/s of DDR400 memory and complete line of DDR400/333/266/200 memory solutions, DDR memory is the best choice for building high performance and low latency DRAM subsystem that are suitable for servers, workstations, and full range of desktop PCs.

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, 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.

AGP Card

GA-8I848PM(-FS) Motherboard - 12 -

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 onboard

AGP slot and press firmly down on the slot

.Make sure your AGP card is locked by the small white- drawable bar.

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 512K memory installed on the motherboard, or 640 K for systems with 640 K or more memory installed on the motherboard.

Extended Memory

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

This is the amount of memory located above 1MB in the CPU's memory address map.
