3. Setup u Installazzjoni

Follow these steps for proper installation of your motherboard and components. Ensure your system is powered off and unplugged before beginning installation.

3.1. Installazzjoni tas-CPU

1. Unlatch the CPU socket lever.
2. Carefully align the CPU with the socket, matching the golden triangle on the CPU with the corresponding mark on the socket.
3. Poġġi s-CPU bil-mod fis-sokit mingħajr ma tisforzah.
4. Lower the socket lever to secure the CPU.

3.2. Installazzjoni tar-RAM

1. Iftaħ il-klipps fuq iż-żewġt itruf tas-slots tad-DDR4 DIMM.
2. Allinja l-modulu tar-RAM mas-slott, filwaqt li tiżgura li l-islott fuq il-modulu taqbel maċ-ċavetta fis-slott.
3. Press down firmly on both ends of the RAM module until the clips snap into place. Refer to your motherboard's manual for recommended slot population order (e.g., A2 and B2 for two modules).

3.3. Installazzjoni tal-SSD M.2

1. Locate the M.2 slots on the motherboard. Your B550 Eagle WIFI6 has two M.2 slots.
2. Remove the M.2 heatsink (if present) by unscrewing it.

4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

4.1. L-Ibbutjar Inizjali u s-Setup tal-BIOS

After assembling your PC, connect your monitor, keyboard, and mouse. Power on the system. During startup, repeatedly press the DEL key to enter the BIOS setup utility. Here you can configure system settings, boot order, and enable features like XMP for memory.

4.2. Installazzjoni tas-sewwieq

After installing your operating system, it is crucial to install the latest drivers for your motherboard components. You can find these on the official GIGABYTE website for your specific model. Pay particular attention to chipset, LAN, and Wi-Fi drivers. For Wi-Fi functionality, you may need to install the drivers via a wired Ethernet connection or a USB drive if Wi-Fi is not immediately recognized.

5. Manutenzjoni

• Żomm Sewwieqa Aġġornata: Iċċekkja regolarment il-GIGABYTE website for the latest chipset, LAN, Wi-Fi, and audio drivers to ensure optimal performance and stability.
• Aġġornamenti tal-BIOS: Only update the BIOS if necessary, following the instructions provided by GIGABYTE. Incorrect BIOS updates can lead to system instability.
• Tindif Fiżiku: Naddaf it-trab mill-kaxxa tal-PC tiegħek u l-komponenti tal-motherboard perjodikament bl-użu ta' arja kkompressata. Kun żgur li s-sistema tkun mitfija u skonnettjata qabel ma tnaddafha.

6 Issolvi l-problemi

6.1. No Display on First Boot

Ensure your monitor is connected to the graphics card (if installed) or the motherboard's video output (if using an APU). Verify that all power cables (24-pin ATX, 8-pin CPU, PCIe power for GPU) are securely connected. Check RAM seating and try reseating modules. If using an AMD CPU without integrated graphics, a dedicated graphics card is required for display output.

6.2. Wi-Fi Not Working After OS Installation

This is a common issue. The operating system may not have built-in drivers for the Wi-Fi 6 module. Connect your PC to the internet via a wired Ethernet connection or use another device to download the Wi-Fi drivers from the GIGABYTE website onto a USB drive. Install the drivers manually.

6.3. Instabbiltà jew Ħsarat tas-Sistema

Ensure all components are properly seated. Check CPU and GPU temperatures. Update all drivers and BIOS to the latest stable versions. If overclocking, revert to default settings to rule out instability caused by overclocks.
