2. Align your graphics card with the PCIe slot and press down firmly until it clicks into place.
3. Festið skjákortið við kassann með skrúfum.

5.5 Rafmagnstengingar

• Tengdu 24 pinna ATX rafmagnstengið frá aflgjafanum þínum við móðurborðið.
• Connect the 8-pin and/or 4-pin CPU power connectors to the motherboard.

5.6 Framhliðartengingar

Connect the front panel cables (power button, reset button, USB ports, audio jacks, etc.) to their respective headers on the motherboard. Refer to the motherboard diagram for exact locations.

6. BIOS Update Procedures

Keeping your BIOS updated ensures optimal performance, compatibility, and security. There are two primary methods for updating the BIOS on your ASRock X870E Taichi Lite Motherboard:

6.1 USB BIOS endurskoðun

This method allows you to update the BIOS without a CPU, RAM, or graphics card installed.

1. Undirbúa USB-drif: Sniðið USB-drif (að minnsta kosti 32GB) í FAT32.
2. Sækja BIOS: Sækja nýjasta BIOS file from the official ASRock websíðu fyrir þína tilteknu móðurborðsgerð.
3. Rename BIOS File: Dragðu niður hlaðið zip file og endurnefna BIOS ROM-ið file til CREATIVE.ROM. Copy this renamed file í rótarmöppuna á FAT32-sniðaða USB-drifinu þínu.
4. Tengdu rafmagn: Ensure the motherboard is connected to the power supply, but do not power on the system.
5. Settu inn USB-síma: Insert the USB drive into the designated USB BIOS Flashback port on the rear I/O panel (refer to Figure 5 for location).
6. Byrjaðu endurminningu: Press and hold the USB BIOS Flashback button on the rear I/O panel for approximately 3 seconds until the LED light starts to blink.
7. Fylgjast með framvindu: The LED will blink during the update process. Wait until the LED stops blinking, indicating the BIOS update is complete.
8. Staðfestu uppfærslu: Kveikið á kerfinu og farið í BIOS-stillingarnar (venjulega með því að ýta á F2 eða Delete meðan á POST stendur) til að staðfesta uppfærða BIOS-útgáfuna.

6.2 Augnablik Flash

This method requires a functional system with a CPU, RAM, and graphics card installed.

1. Undirbúa USB-drif: Sniðið USB-drif (að minnsta kosti 32GB) í FAT32.
2. Sækja BIOS: Sækja nýjasta BIOS file from the official ASRock websíðu fyrir þína tilteknu móðurborðsgerð.
3. Copy BIOS File: Dragðu niður hlaðið zip file og afritaðu BIOS ROM diskinn file (no renaming needed for Instant Flash) to the root directory of your FAT32 formatted USB drive.
4. Settu inn USB-síma: Insert the USB drive into any available USB port on the motherboard.
5. Fara inn í BIOS uppsetninguna: Power on your system and press F2 or Delete during POST to enter the BIOS setup menu.
6. Aðgangur að skyndiflassi: Navigate to the 'Tool' menu and select 'Instant Flash'.
7. Confirm Update: The utility will detect the BIOS file on your USB drive. Select the correct BIOS version and confirm to proceed with the update.
8. Endurræstu kerfið: After the update is complete, the system will prompt you to reboot.
9. Hlaða sjálfgefnum stillingum: After rebooting, enter the BIOS setup again. Go to the 'Exit' menu, select 'Load UEFI Defaults', and press 'Yes' to continue. Then select 'Save Changes and Exit' and press 'Yes' to exit the BIOS setup menu.

8. Bilanagreining

• Enginn kraftur: Gakktu úr skugga um að allir rafmagnssnúrur (24 pinna ATX, 8 pinna örgjörvi) séu vel tengdir. Athugaðu virkni aflgjafans.
• Enginn skjár: Verify that the graphics card is properly seated in the PCIe slot and connected to the monitor. If using integrated graphics, ensure the monitor is connected to the motherboard's video output.
• Óstöðugleiki kerfisins: Check RAM modules for proper seating. Ensure CPU cooler is correctly installed and making good contact. Update BIOS to the latest version.
• Vandamál með ræsingu: Verify boot order in BIOS. Check M.2 SSD or SATA drive connections. Clear CMOS if necessary (refer to Figure 5 for CLR CMOS button).

9. Viðhald

• Halda hreinu: Regularly clean dust from the motherboard and cooling components using compressed air. Ensure proper airflow within the PC case.
• BIOS uppfærslur: Athugaðu reglulega ASRock website for new BIOS updates to improve system stability and compatibility.
