Step 3 Set the WiFi 2.4/5/6 GHz Antenna as shown in the illustration. *You may need to adjust the direction of the antenna for a stronger signal.

Installation

This is an ATX form factor motherboard. Before you install the motherboard, study the coniguration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard its into it.
Pre-installation Precautions
Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings. · Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard
components. Failure to do so may cause physical injuries and damages to motherboard components. · In order to avoid damage from static electricity to the motherboard’s components, NEVER place your motherboard directly on a carpet. Also remember to use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safety grounded object before you handle the components. · Hold components by the edges and do not touch the ICs. · Whenever you uninstall any components, place them on a grounded anti-static pad or in the bag that comes with the components. · When placing screws to secure the motherboard to the chassis, please do not overtighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

2.3 Installing Memory Modules (DIMM)

his motherboard provides four 288-pin DDR5 (Double Data Rate 5) DIMM slots, and supports Dual Channel Memory Technology.

1. For dual channel coniguration, you always need to install identical (the same brand, speed, size and chip-type) DDR5 DIMM pairs.
2. It is unable to activate Dual Channel Memory Technology with only one or three memory module installed.
3. It is not allowed to install a DDR, DDR2 , DDR3 or DDR4 memory module into a DDR5 slot; otherwise, this motherboard and DIMM may be damaged.
4. he DIMM only its in one correct orientation. It will cause permanent damage to the motherboard and the DIMM if you force the DIMM into the slot at incorrect orientation.

ASRock BIOS Flashback feature allows you to update BIOS without powering on the system, even without CPU.
Before using the BIOS Flashback function, please suspend BitLocker and any encryption or security relying on the TPM. Make sure that you have already stored and backup-ed the recovery key. If the recovery key is missing while encryption is active, the data will stay encrypted and the system will not boot into the operating system. It is recommended to disable fTPM before updating the BIOS. Otherwise an unpredictable failure may occur.
To use the USB BIOS Flashback function, Please follow the steps below. 1. Download the latest BIOS ile from ASRock’s website : http://www.asrock.com. 2. Copy the BIOS ile to your USB lash drive. Please make sure the ile system of
your USB lash drive must be FAT32. 3. Extract BIOS ile from the zip ile. 4. Rename the ile to “creative.rom” and save it to the root directory of X: USB lash drive. 5. Plug the 24 pin power connector to the motherboard. hen turn on the power supply’s AC
switch. *here is no need to power on the system. 6. hen plug your USB drive to the USB BIOS Flashback port. 7. Press the BIOS Flashback Switch for about three seconds. hen the LED starts to blink. 8. Wait until the LED stops blinking, indicating that BIOS lashing has been completed. *If the LED light turns solid green, this means that the BIOS Flashback is not operating properly. Please make sure that you plug the USB drive to the USB BIOS Flashback port. **If the LED does not light up at all then please disconnect power from the system and remove/disconnect the CMOS battery from the motherboard for several minutes. Reconnect power and battery and try again.
