6. Betjening af bundkortet

6.1 Første opstart og BIOS-opsætning

1. Når du har samlet alle komponenter, skal du tilslutte din skærm, tastatur og mus.
2. Power on your system. During the initial boot sequence, repeatedly press the DEL or F2 key (common for JINGSHA motherboards) to enter the BIOS/UEFI setup utility.
3. Kontroller i BIOS, at alle installerede komponenter (CPU, RAM, lager) registreres korrekt.
4. Konfigurer opstartsrækkefølgen for at prioritere dit operativsystems installationsmedie (USB-drev eller dvd).
5. Gem ændringerne, og afslut BIOS. Systemet genstarter.

6.2 Installation af operativsystem

Follow the instructions provided with your operating system (e.g., Windows, Linux) to complete the installation process. Ensure you install all necessary drivers for the motherboard's chipsets, network, audio, and other components from the manufacturer's webwebstedet eller den medfølgende driverdisk.

7. Vedligeholdelse

Korrekt vedligeholdelse sikrer dit bundkorts levetid og stabile drift.

• Fjernelse af støv: Fjern regelmæssigt støv fra bundkortet og komponenterne med trykluft. Sørg for, at systemet er slukket og frakoblet, før rengøring.
• BIOS-opdateringer: Periodically check the Docooler or JINGSHA official website for BIOS updates. BIOS updates can improve compatibility, stability, and performance. Follow update instructions carefully to avoid damaging the motherboard.
• Driver opdateringer: Hold dine systemdrivere opdaterede for at sikre optimal ydeevne og kompatibilitet med ny software og hardware.
• Miljøforhold: Operate the motherboard in a well-ventilated environment with stable temperature and humidity to prevent overheating and component degradation.

8. Fejlfinding

Dette afsnit omhandler almindelige problemer, du kan støde på.

8.1 Ingen strøm / Ingen opstart

• Ensure the 24-pin ATX and 8-pin CPU power connectors are securely plugged into the motherboard.
• Check if the power supply unit (PSU) is switched on and connected to a working power outlet.
• Verify that the front panel power button cable is correctly connected to the motherboard's header.

8.2 Ingen skærmudgang

• Ensure your graphics card (if dedicated) is properly seated in its PCI-E slot and has all necessary power cables connected.
• Check that your monitor cable is securely connected to the graphics card or motherboard (if integrated graphics are used, though X99 typically requires a dedicated GPU).
• Try reseating your RAM modules. Incorrectly seated RAM is a common cause of no display.

8.3 POST Code Display (Digital Diagnostic Card)

The motherboard is equipped with a digital diagnostic card (POST code display) that shows a two-digit code during boot-up. Refer to the motherboard's detailed technical documentation (often available on the manufacturer's website) for a list of POST codes and their meanings. This can help pinpoint the exact component causing a boot failure.
