- BIOS/UEFI-käyttö: Typically accessed by pressing DEL or F2 during system startup.
- Ohjaimen asennus: Install all necessary drivers for chipset, audio, LAN, and graphics from the GIGABYTE support website or the included driver disk.
- Käyttöjärjestelmä: Install your preferred operating system, such as Windows 11, following its installation prompts.
Huolto
Säännöllinen huolto varmistaa emolevyn pitkän käyttöiän ja optimaalisen suorituskyvyn.
- Pölynpoisto: Puhdista emolevy ja komponentit säännöllisesti pölystä paineilmalla. Varmista, että järjestelmä on sammutettu ja irrotettu pistorasiasta ennen puhdistamista.
- BIOS-päivitykset: Tarkista GIGABYTE website for BIOS updates. Updates can improve stability, compatibility, and performance. Follow the provided instructions carefully when updating the BIOS.
- Ohjaimen päivitykset: Keep all system drivers updated to ensure compatibility and optimal performance with new software and hardware.
