Gigabyte GA-8IGML-T User manual

Whenyou installing AGPcard,please make surethefollowing
notice isfullyunderstood and practiced.IfyourAGPcardhas
"AGP4Xnotch"(showbelow),please make sureyourAGPcardis
AGP4X(1.5V).
Donotuse AGP2Xcard(3.3V)inthismotherboard.Itwill
burnand damagethemotherboardduetoIntel®845(E/G)/850(E)
chipsetcan'tsupportAGP2X(3.3V).
Example1:Diamond VipperV770 golden fingeriscompatiblewith2X/
4Xmode AGPslot. It can be switched between AGP2X(3.3V)or
4X(1.5V)mode byadjusting the jumper.The factorydefaultforthiscard
is2X(3.3V).If you install thiscardinGA-8IGML-Tseries(oranyAGP
4Xonly)motherboardswithoutswitching the jumperto4Xmode (1.5V),
itwill burnthe motherboard.
Example2:SomeATiRage 128 Prographics cardsmade by“Power
Color”,the graphics cardmanufacturer&someSiS305 cards,their
golden fingeriscompatiblewith2X/4Xmode AGPslot, buttheysupport
2X(3.3V)only.If you install thiscardinGA-8IGML-Tseries(oranyAGP
4Xonly)motherboards,itwill burnthe motherboard.
Note:AlthoughGigabyte'sAG32S(G)graphicscardisbasedonATiRage
128 Prochip,the design ofAG32S(G)iscompliancewithAGP4X(1.5V)
specification.Therefore,AG32S(G)will workfine withIntel®845(E/G)/
