B. Follow the steps below to correctly install the CPU into the motherboard CPU socket. Before installing the CPU, make sure to turn off the computer and unplug the power cord from the power outlet to prevent damage to the CPU.

CPU Socket Lever

Step 1: Completely raise the CPU socket lever.
Step 2: Remove the protective socket cover.
Step 3: Lift the metal load plate on the CPU socket.
Step 4: Hold the CPU with your thumb and index fingers. Align the CPU pin one marking (triangle) with the pin one corner of the CPU socket (or you may align the CPU notches with the socket alignment keys) and gently insert the CPU into position.
Step 5: Once the CPU is properly inserted, replace the load plate and push the CPU socket lever back into its locked position.

1-3-2 Installing the CPU Cooler
Follow the steps below to correctly install the CPU cooler on the motherboard. (The following procedure uses Intel boxed cooler as the example cooler.)
Male Push Pin Direction of the Arrow Sign on the Male Push Pin
The Top of Female Push Pin Female Push Pin
Step 1: Apply an even and thin layer of thermal grease on the surface of the installed CPU.
Step 2: Before installing the cooler, note the direction of the arrow sign on the male push pin. (Turning the push pin along the direction of arrow is to remove the cooler, on the contrary, is to install.)
Step 3: Place the cooler atop the CPU, aligning the four push pins through the pin holes on the motherboard. Push down on the push pins diagonally.
Step 4: You should hear a "click" when pushing down each push pin. Check that the Male and Female push pins are joined closely. (Refer to your CPU cooler installation manual for instructions on installing the cooler.)
Step 5: After the installation, check the back of the motherboard. If the push pin is inserted as the picture above, the installation is complete.

3/4/5/6) CPU_FAN/SYS_FAN1/SYS_FAN2/PWR_FAN (Fan Headers)
The motherboard has a 4-pin CPU fan header (CPU_FAN), a 3-pin system fan header (SYS_FAN1), a 4-pin system fan header (SYS_FAN2) and a 3-pin power fan header (PWR_FAN). Each fan header supplies a +12V power voltage and possesses a foolproof insertion design. When connecting a fan cable, be sure to connect it in the correct orientation. Most fans are designed with colorcoded power connector wires. A red power connector wire indicates a positive connection and requires a +12V voltage. The black connector wire is the ground wire. The motherboard supports CPU fan speed control, which requires the use of a CPU fan with fan speed control design. For optimum heat dissipation, it is recommended that a system fan be installed inside the chassis.

Be sure to connect fan cables to the fan headers to prevent your CPU and system from overheating. Overheating may result in damage to the CPU or the system may hang. These fan headers are not configuration jumper blocks. Do not place a jumper cap on the headers.
7) FDD (Floppy Disk Drive Connector)

This connector is used to connect a floppy disk drive. The types of floppy disk drives supported are: 360 KB, 720 KB, 1.2 MB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB. Before connecting a floppy disk drive, be sure to locate pin 1 of the connector and the floppy disk drive cable. The pin 1 of the cable is typically designated by a stripe of different color.

- 24 -

8) IDE1 (IDE Connector)
The IDE connector supports up to two IDE devices such as hard drives and optical drives. Before attaching the IDE cable, locate the foolproof groove on the connector. If you wish to connect two IDE devices, remember to set the jumpers and the cabling according to the role of the IDE devices (for example, master or slave). (For information about configuring master/slave settings for the IDE devices, read the instructions from the device manufacturers.)
9) SATAII0/1/2/3/4/5 (SATA 3Gb/s Connectors, Controlled by ICH9R, Orange)
The SATA connectors conform to SATA 3Gb/s standard and are compatible with SATA 1.5Gb/s standard. Each SATA connector supports a single SATA device.

4-2-2 Updating the BIOS with the @BIOS Utility
1. 2. 3. If your system supports Intel Hyper-Threading technology, disable this function in BIOS Setup. In Windows, close all applications and TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) programs. This helps prevent unexpected failures when performing a BIOS update. During the BIOS update process, ensure the Internet connection is stable and do NOT interrupt the Internet connection (for example, avoid a power loss or switching off the Internet). Failure to do so may result in a corrupted BIOS or a system that is unable to start. Do not use the C.O.M. (Corporate Online Management) function when using @BIOS. GIGABYTE product warranty does not cover any BIOS damage or system failure resulting from an inadequate BIOS flashing.

Configuring Audio Input and Output
5-2-1 Configuring 2/4/5.1/7.1-Channel Audio
The motherboard provides six audio jacks on the back panel which support 2/4/5.1/7.1-channel audio. The picture to the right shows the default audio jack Center/Subwoofer Line In Speaker Out assignments. Front Speaker Out Rear Speaker Out The integrated HD (High Definition) audio provides Mic In jack retasking capability that allows the user to change Side Speaker Out the function for each jack through the audio driver. For example, in a 4-channel audio configuration, if a Rear speaker is plugged into the default Center/ Subwoofer speaker out jack, you can retask the Center/Subwoofer speaker out jack to be Rear speaker out. To install a microphone, connect your microphone to the Mic in or Line in jack and manually configure the jack for microphone functionality. If your front panel audio supports Intel HD Audio standard, you can have both the front and back panel audio connectors active simultaneously. High Definition Audio (HD Audio) HD Audio includes multiple high quality digital-to-analog converters (DACs) that support 44.1KHz/ 48KHz/ 96KHz/192KHz sampling rate. HD Audio features multistreaming capabilities that allow multiple audio streams (in and out) to be simultaneously processed. For example, users can listen to MP3 music, have an Internet chat, make a telephone call over the Internet, and etc. all at the same time.

A. Configuring Speakers:

(The following instructions use Windows XP as the example operating system.) Step 1: After installing the audio driver, the Audio Manager will appear in your system tray. Doubleicon click the icon to access the Audio Control Panel.
Before installing the audio driver, make sure the "Microsoft UAA Bus driver for High Defintion Audio" has been installed from the motherboard driver disk and your operating system has been updated with the latest Service Pack for Windows.
(Note) 2/4/5.1/7.1 Channel Audio Configurations: Refer to the following for multi-channel speaker configurations. 2 channel audio: Headphone or Line out. 4 channel audio: Front speaker out and Rear speaker out. 5.1 channel audio: Front speaker out, Rear speaker out, and Center/Subwoofer speaker out. 7.1 channel audio: Front speaker out, Rear speaker out, Center/Subwoofer speaker out, and Side speaker out.
