Warning

The motherboard consists of a great number of ICs and other components.
These ICs might be damaged by the static charge. Therefore, the user must
make the following preparations before installation:
Turn off the power of the computer. It is preferable the power cord be unplugged.
Take care not to contact the metal wires and theirs joints on the motherboard
when handling it.
It is preferable that the operator wear the anti-static wrist strap when handling
the IC components.
Before the ICs are installed, the components of the motherboard should be
placed on the anti-static mat or bag.
When you remove the plug on the ATX power supply of the motherboard,
make sure the switch of the power supply is in OFF state.
Installing the motherboard onto the computer case:
For most of the computer cases, the multiple fixing holes left on their bottoms
can be used for securing the motherboard and preventing short circuit. During
your operation, take care not to allow the screws to contact any circuit or part on
PCB. When circuits on the surface of the motherboard get close to the fixing
holes, you can use the plastic sheet to separate the screws from the board
surface so as to avoid damage or failure of the motherboard.

1. Layout of motherboard 2. Installing memory
Please install the memory in accordance with the following procedures:
· Align the golden finger of the memory to the groove of the interface slot and
pay attention the concave hole of golden finger should be aligned to the
convex point of the slot.
· Finally, insert the memory into the interface slot gently. If no error occurs at
the moment, insert the card forward in the slot till the white buckle is
automatically engaged in the concave hole at the two sides of the memory.
Note
In order to avoid damages to the motherboard or the components, the user must
make sure the power supply to the computer is turned off before the memory or
other component is installed or removed. As the groove is set at the golden finger
of the DDR DIMM, the memory can only be inserted into the slot with one direction.
During installation, the user only needs to align the golden finger and the dual-
channel groove of the interface slot and insert it gently. To avoid damage, never
apply excessive force in that process.
3. Motherboard jumper setting
Note:The user should notice that all sockets are marked with PIN1. The mark “#”
indicates the ex-factory default values.

Note
The descriptions relating to BIOS in this Manual can only be used for reference
as the BIOS version of the motherboard is upgraded continuously. Giada provides
no guarantee that the contents in this Manual be consistent with the information
you acquire.
BIOS is a basic I/O control program saved in the Flash Memory. Bridging the
motherboard and the operating system, BIOS is used for managing the setup of
the related parameters between them. When the computer is activated, the
system is first controlled by the BIOS program. First, a self-detection called POST
is performed to check all hard devices and confirm the parameters of the
synchronous hardware. Once all detections are completed, BIOS will hand over
the controlling to the operating system (OS). As BIOS serves as the only channel
that connects the hardware and software, whether your computer can run stably
and work in optimized state will hinge on how to properly set the parameters in
BIOS. Therefore, the correct setup of BIOS plays a key role in stably running the
system and optimizing its performance.
The CMOS Setup will save the set parameters in the built-in CMOS SRAM on the
motherboard. When the power is shut off, the lithium battery on the motherboard
will provide continuously power for CMOS SRAM. The BIOS setup program will
allow you to configure the following items:
1.HD drive, floppy drive and peripheral devices;
2.Video display type and display items;
3.Password protection;
4.Power management characteristics.
A.A.State of BIOS Setup
When the computer is started up, BIOS will run the self-detection (Post) program.
This program includes series of diagnosis fixed in BIOS. When this program is
executed, the following information will appear if any error is found:
Press F1 to Run Setup
Press F2 to Load default values and continue

C.Auxiliary information
Main interface
When the system enters the main interface of Setup, the major selected contents
will be displayed at the lower part of the interface with the change of the options.
Set interface
When you set the value for each column, you can view the preset value of the
column and the values that can be set if you press F1, for example, the BIOS
default values or CMOS Setup values. To exit the interface for auxiliary information,
press [ESC].
To enter BIOS, you can press F1; to load the default values and enter the system,
you can press F2. After the self-detection process is completed, you can press
DEL to enter the BIOS interface if no error is found. If the indicative information
disappears before you can act, you can shut off the computer and turn on it
again, or you can press the key RESET on the machine case. To restart your
computer, you can also simultaneously press <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Delete>.
B. Function Keys definitions
1. Main menu
When the system enters the CMOS Setup menu, you can see the main menu on
the upper part of the screen, as shown in Figure 3.1. In this main menu, you can
use the left and right direction keys to select the setup items. Once the item is
selected, the lower part of the computer screen will show the details of setting.
(The options above and their contents may be different from your actual options,
so they are used for reference only).
· Main (standard CMOS setup)
This item is used for setting the date, time, specifications of hard disk and floppy
disk and type of monitor.
· Advanced (advanced BIOS setup)
This item is used for setting the advanced functions provided by BIOS, such as
the virus alarm and priority order of disks for startup process.
