Manutenção

1. Atualizações da BIOS

Verifique regularmente o GIGABYTE website for BIOS updates. BIOS updates can improve system stability, compatibility, and performance. When updating the BIOS, use a small capacity USB drive (typically 32GB or less, formatted to FAT32) for the Q-Flash utility. Follow the instructions provided with the BIOS update file com cuidado.

2. Limpeza

Periodically clean your computer's interior to prevent dust buildup, which can lead to overheating and reduced performance. Use compressed air to remove dust from heatsinks, fans, and other components. Ensure the system is powered off and unplugged before cleaning.

3. Verificações de componentes

Occasionally inspect all cable connections (power, data, and peripheral) to ensure they are secure. Verify that all expansion cards and memory modules are properly seated in their slots.

Solução de problemas

Caso encontre problemas, considere as seguintes etapas comuns de resolução de problemas:

• Sem energia/Sem inicialização: Double-check all power connections to the motherboard and components. Ensure the power supply is functioning correctly.
• Problemas de exibição: Verify that your graphics card is properly seated and connected to the monitor. If using integrated graphics, ensure your monitor is connected to the motherboard's video output.
• Memory Instability: If experiencing crashes or boot failures related to memory, try reseating the RAM modules. Ensure memory is installed in the correct slots according to the manual for dual-channel operation. Adjusting memory frequency or timings in BIOS may be necessary if using high-speed kits.
• Periférico não detectado: Check USB or SATA connections. Ensure drivers for the peripheral are installed.
• Limpar CMOS: If system settings become unstable or you cannot access BIOS, use the Clear CMOS button on the rear I/O panel or the designated jumper on the motherboard to reset BIOS settings to default.
