Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To

protectthemagainstdamagefromstaticelectricity,youshouldfollowsome

precautions whenever you work on your computer.

1. Turnoffyour computer and unplug power supply.

2. Useagroundedwriststrapbeforehandlingcomputercomponents.Ifyoudonot

Inspectthecardcartonforobviousdamage.Shippingandhandlingmaycausedamage

toyour card. Be sure thereareno shipping and handling damagesonthecard before

proceeding.

DO NOTAPPLY POWER TOYOUR SYSTEM IF THE GRAPHICS CARD IS

DAMAGED.

In order to ensure that your graphics card can work correctly, please use

official GIGABYTE BIOS only. Using non-official GIGABYTE BIOS might

cause problem(s) on the graphics card.

The entire Radeon HD 4800 series support HDMI output which can handle both audio and

video signals. However, audio output from the onboard audio controller or the external

sound card will be disabled when HDMI output is activated.

If no need for HDMI output function, set the onboard audio controller or the external sound

card to be the default Sound Playback device to obtain audio output from your system. For

more details, refer to page 15.

2.2. Hardware Installation

Now that you have prepared your computer, you are ready to install your graphics card.

Step 1.

Locate the PCI Express x16 slot. If necessary, remove the

metal cover from this slot; then align your graphics card with

the PCI Express x16 slot, and press it in firmly until the card is

fully seated.

Step 2.

Replace the screw to fasten the card in place, and replace the

computer cover.

Afterinstallation,remembertoconnectthepowercabletoyourgraphicscard,orthesystem

willnot boot. Do not touchthe card when it's operatingto prevent systeminstability.

Makesurethatthegoldedgeconnectorofthegraphicscardissecurely

You are now ready to proceed with the installation of the graphics card driver. Please refer to next

chapter for detailed instructions.

Step 3.

Plug the display cable into your card; then turn on the computer

and monitor. To connect a D-Sub monitor to your graphics card,

use the D-Sub connector. To connect a flat panel display to your

graphics card, use the DVI-I connector. To connect an HDMI

monitor to your graphics card, use the HDMI connector.

How to enable the ATI CrossFireXTM technology?

Step 1:

Install two CrossFireX graphics cards of the same chipset on a CrossFireX-supported motherboard and

connect the graphics cards via two CrossFire bridge interconnect cables (Figure 1). Then users can

enable the CrossFireX technology through the graphics card driver.

Two CrossFire bridge

interconnect cables. TwoCrossFiregraphics cardsofthe sametype.

(Example: GV-RX195P256D-RH)

Figure 1

Step 2:

After installing graphics card driver in operating system, when an ATI CrossFireX configuration is

detected for the first time by the ATI Catalyst display driver, ATI CrossFireX support is automatically

enabled, and the best possible GPU combination is selected based on the hardware configuration.

IfATI CrossFireX is not enabled, access the ATI Catalyst Control Center (please refer to Page 14). From

theATI Catalyst Control Center, enter the CrossFire menu and assure to select the Enable CrossFireXTM

check box (Figure 2).

3. Software Installation

Notice the following guidelines before installing the drivers:

1. First make sure your system has installed DirectX 9 or later version.

2. Make sure your system has installed the appropriate motherboard drivers (for the motherboard

drivers, please contact the motherboard manufacturer.)

3.1. Driver and Utility Installation

3.1.1. Driver Installation

After installing the operating system, insert the driver disk into your optical drive. The driver Autorun

screen is automatically displayed which looks like that shown in the screen shot below. (If the driver

Autorun screen does not appear automatically, go to My Computer, double-click the optical drive and

execute the setup.exe program.)

For software MPEG support in Windows XP, you must install DirectX first. Users who run

Windows XP with Service Pack 2 or above do not need to install DirectX separately.
