®

Caution: AGP 2X card is not supported by Intel

845(GE/PE) / 845(E/

G) / 850(E) / E7205 / 865(G/PE/PL/P) / 875P / 848P. You might

experiencesystem unable to boot up normally. Please insert an AGP

4X/8X card.

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). The GA-8I865P(-G) (or any AGP 4X/8X only) motherboards

might not function properly, if you install this card without switching the

jumper to 4X(1.5V) mode in it.

Example 2: Some ATi Rage 128 Pro graphics cards made by "Power Color",

the graphics card manufacturer & some SiS 305 cards, their golden finger

is compatible with 2X(3.3V)/4X(1.5V) mode AGP slot, but they support 2X

(3.3V) only. The GA-8I865P(-G) (or any AGP 4X/8X only) motherboards

might not function properly, If you install this card in it.

Warning

English

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.

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.

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.

Step 2: Install memory modules

Before installing the memory modules, please comply with the following conditions:

1. Please make sure that the memory used is supported by the motherboard. It is

English

recommended that memory of similar capacity, specifications and brand be used.

2. Before installing or removing memory modules, please make sure that the computer

power is switched off to prevent hardware damage.

3. Memory modules have a foolproof insertion design. A memory module can be in-

stalled in only one direction. If you are unable to insert the module, please switch

the direction.

The motherboard supports DDR memory modules, whereby BIOS will automatically detect memory

capacity and specifications. Memory modules are designed so that they can be inserted only in

one direction. The memory capacity used can differ with each slot.

DDR

GA-8I865P(-G) 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-8I865P(-G) 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 -GA-8I865P(-G) Motherboard

English

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.

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.

Chapter 3 BIOS Setup

BIOS (Basic Input and Output System) includes a CMOS SETUP utility which allows user to configure

required settings or to activate certain system features.

The CMOS SETUP saves the configuration in the CMOS SRAM of the motherboard.

When the power is turned off, the battery on the motherboard supplies the necessary power to the CMOS

SRAM.

When the power is turned on, pushing the <Del> button during the BIOS POST (Power-On Self Test) will

take you to the CMOS SETUP screen. You can enter the BIOS setup screen by pressing "Ctrl + F1".

When setting up BIOS for the first time, it is recommended that you save the current BIOS to a disk in the

event that BIOS needs to be reset to its original settings. If you wish to upgrade to a new BIOS, either

Gigabyte's Q-Flash or @BIOS utility can be used.

Q-Flash allows the user to quickly and easily update or backup BIOS without entering the operating

system.

@BIOS is a Windows-based utility that does not require users to boot to DOS before upgrading BIOS but

directly download and update BIOS from the Internet.
