4. ترتیب او نصب کول

Follow these general steps for installing your motherboard and essential components. Always refer to the detailed instructions in your motherboard's physical manual for specific component placement and safety warnings.

۴.۱. د CPU نصبول

Carefully open the CPU socket retention arm. Align the triangular mark on your Intel Core Ultra (Series 2) processor with the mark on the LGA1851 socket. Gently place the CPU into the socket without forcing it. Close the retention arm to secure the CPU.

۳.۴. د حافظې (RAM) نصبول

Unlock the DIMM slot clips. Align the notch on your DDR5 memory modules with the key in the DIMM slots. Press down firmly on both ends of the memory module until the clips snap into place. This motherboard supports dual-channel memory; refer to the manual for optimal slot population.

4.3. Storage (M.2 SSD, SATA Drives) Installation

For M.2 SSDs, locate the Blazing M.2 (PCIe Gen5x4) or Hyper M.2 (PCIe Gen4x4) slots. Remove the M.2 heatsink if present. Insert the M.2 SSD at an angle and secure it with the provided screw or standoff. Reattach the heatsink. For SATA drives, connect the SATA data cables to the motherboard's SATA3 6.0 Gb/s ports and to your storage devices. Connect SATA power cables from your power supply to the drives.

4.4. Expansion Card (GPU) Installation

Locate the PCIe 4.0 x16 slot. Open the retention clip at the end of the slot. Align your graphics card with the slot and press down firmly until it is fully seated and the retention clip locks. Secure the card to your chassis with screws. Connect any necessary PCIe power cables from your power supply to the graphics card.

4.5. د پردیو نښلول

Connect your monitor to the HDMI or DisplayPort on the rear I/O panel. Connect your keyboard, mouse, and other USB devices to the available USB ports. Attach the Wi-Fi antennas to the designated connectors on the rear I/O panel. Connect your Ethernet cable to the Realtek 2.5G LAN port if using a wired connection.

4.6. په بریښنا چالانول

Ensure all power cables (24-pin ATX, 8-pin CPU, PCIe power) are securely connected. Turn on your power supply's AC switch. Press the power button on your PC case. The system should initiate the boot process.

5. Operating and BIOS Configuration

The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) is firmware that initializes hardware during the booting process and provides runtime services for operating systems. You can access and configure various system settings here.

5.1. Accessing BIOS Setup

During system startup (POST), repeatedly press the F2 or ړنګول key to enter the BIOS setup utility. Here you can configure boot order, overclocking settings (like DDR5 XMP/EXPO profiles), fan speeds, and other system parameters.

5.2. BIOS Update via USB BIOS Flashback

The BIOS Flashback feature allows you to update the BIOS without a CPU, RAM, or graphics card installed. This is useful for compatibility with newer CPUs.

1. د USB ډرایو چمتو کول: Format a USB drive (at least 32GB) to FAT32 with 16KB allocation unit size.
2. Download BIOS: Download the latest BIOS from the official ASRock webسایټ زپ استخراج کړئ file and rename the BIOS ROM file to "CREATIVE.ROM". Copy this file to the root directory of your FAT32 formatted USB drive.
3. USB داخل کړئ: Turn off the system. Insert the USB drive into the designated USB BIOS Flashback port on the rear I/O panel (refer to your manual for exact location).
4. فلش پیل کړئ: Turn on the power supply's AC switch (do not power on the system). Press and hold the USB BIOS Flashback button on the rear I/O for about 3 seconds until the LED light starts to blink.
5. بشپړول: Wait until the LED stops blinking, indicating the BIOS update is complete. This may take a few minutes.
6. تایید کړئ: Turn on the system and enter BIOS setup (F2 or Delete) to verify the updated BIOS version.

5.3. BIOS Update via Instant Flash

Instant Flash is a BIOS update utility embedded in the BIOS ROM. It allows you to update the BIOS from a USB flash drive within the BIOS setup.

1. د USB ډرایو چمتو کول: Format a USB drive (at least 32GB) to FAT32. Download the latest BIOS from the official ASRock website and copy the BIOS ROM file ستاسو د USB ډرایو روټ ډایرکټرۍ ته.
2. Insert USB & Boot: Insert the USB drive into any USB port on the motherboard. Turn on the system and enter the BIOS setup utility (F2 or Delete).
3. Access Instant Flash: In the BIOS setup, navigate to the "Tool" menu and select "Instant Flash".
4. Select BIOS File: The utility will automatically detect the BIOS file on your USB drive. Select the appropriate BIOS version and confirm to proceed with the update.
5. بشپړول: Do not power off the system during the update. Once complete, the system will prompt you to reboot.
6. Load Defaults: After rebooting, enter the BIOS setup again. Go to the "Exit" menu, select "Load UEFI Defaults", and press "Yes" to continue. Then "Save Changes and Exit" to reboot with optimized settings.

6. د عملیاتي سیسټم نصب کول

After successfully installing your hardware and configuring the BIOS, you can proceed with installing your preferred operating system (e.g., Windows 11). Insert your OS installation media (USB drive or DVD) and set it as the primary boot device in the BIOS. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the OS installation.
