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- Connect ribbon cables, cabinet wires, and power supply

Step 4

Step 1

Step 2

Step 4 Step 4

Step 3

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.
- 11 Hardware Installation Process
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 1-1: CPU Installation Angling the rod to 65

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

3. CPU Top View
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.

- 12 -

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 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.

Hardware Installation Process
Step 2: Install memory modules
Before installing the processor and heatsink, adhere to the following warning: 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 4 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.
GA-8IPE1000 Series supports the Dual Channel Technology. After operating the Dual Channel Technology, the bandwidth of Memory Bus will add double up to 6.4GB/s. GA-8IPE1000 Series includes 4 DIMM sockets, and each Channel has two DIMM sockets as following: Channel A : DIMM 1, DIMM 2 Channel B : DIMM 3, DIMM 4 If you want to operate the Dual Channel Technology, please note the following explanations due to the limitation of Intel chipset specifications. 1. Only one DDR memory module is installed: The Dual Channel Technology can't operate when only one DDR memory module is installed.

- 14 -

2. Two DDR memory modules are installed (the same memory size and type): The Dual Channel Technology will operate when two memory modules are inserted individually into Channel A and B. If you install two memory modules in the same channel, the Dual Channel Technology will not operate. 3. Three DDR memory modules are installed: Please note that The Dual Channel Technology will not operate when three DDR memory modules are installed; part of them will not be detected. 4. Four DDR memory modules are installed: If you install four memory modules at the same time, the Dual Channel Technology will operate only when those modules have the same memory size and type.
We'll strongly recommend our user to slot two DDR memory modules into the DIMMs with the same color in order for Dual Channel Technology to work. The following tables include all memory-installed combination types:
(Please note that those types not in the tables will not boot up.)

Technical Reference
Flash BIOS Method Introduction
Method 1: Dual BIOS (*) /Q-Flash
A. What is Dual BIOS Technology?
Dual BIOS means that there are two system BIOS (ROM) on the motherboard, one is the Main BIOS and the other is Backup BIOS. Under the normal circumstances, the system works on the Main BIOS. If the Main BIOS is corrupted or damaged, the Backup BIOS can take over while the system is powered on. This means that your PC will still be able to run stably as if nothing has happened in your BIOS.
B. How to use Dual BIOS and Q-Flash Utility?
a. After power on the computer, pressing <Del> immediately during POST (Power On Self Test) it will allow you to enter Award BIOS CMOS SETUP, then press <F8> to enter Flash utility.

If you have already put the floppy disk into your system and have enter the Q-Flash utility, please follow the steps below to flash BIOS.

M ethod 2: Connect the front channels to the "LINE OUT" port located on the audio panel and the rear channels to the "LINE IN" port. Connect the center/ subwoofer channels to the "MIC IN" port located on the audio panel and the R/L channels to the Surround-Kit "SUR BACK" port. (This m ethod requires UAJ function)
STEP 4 : Following installation of the audio driver, you find a icon a Sound Effect icon on the lower right hand taskbar. Click the icon to select the function.
STEP 5 : Click "Speaker Configuration" and select both the "UAJ Function" and "Only Surround-Kit". Then click on the left selection bar and select "8CH Speaker" to complete 8 channel audio configuration.
Sound E ffect Configu ration: At the sound effect m enu, users can adjust sound option settings as desired.

SPDIF Output Device (Optional Device)
A "SPDIF output" device is available on the motherboard. Cable with rear bracket is provided and could link to the "SPDIF output" connector (As picture.) For the further linkage to decoder, rear bracket provides coaxial cable and Fiber connecting port.
1. Connect the SPDIF output device to the rear bracket of PC, and fix it with screw.
2. Connect SPDIF device to the m otherboard.
3. Connect SPDIF to the SPDIF decoder.

Jack-Sensing(UAJ) Introduction
Jack-Sensing provides audio connectors error-detection function.
Install Microsoft DirectX8.1 or later version before to enable Jack-Sensing support for Windows 98/98SE/2000/ME.
Jack-Sensing includes 2 parts: AUTO and MANUAL. Following is an example for 2 channels (Windows XP):
Introduction of audio connectors
You may connect CDROM , Walkm an or others audio input devices to Line In jack, speakers, earphone or others output devices to Line Out jack, and microphone to MIC In jack.

Auto-detecting:

Please connect the devices to the right jacks as above. A window will appear as right picture if you setup the devices properly. Please note that 3D audio function will only appear when 3D audio inputs.
