Supporting NTFS, FAT32, and FAT16 file systems, Xpress Recovery2 can back up data on PATA and SATA hard drives and restore it. Before You Begin: • Xpress Recovery2 will check the first physical hard drive* for the operating system. Xpress Recovery2 can only back up/restore the first physical hard drive that has the operating system installed. • As Xpress Recovery2 will save the backup file at the end of the hard drive, make sure to leave enough unallocated space in advanced (10 GB or more is recommended; actual size requirements vary, depending on the amount of data). • It is recommended to back up your system soon after the operating system and drivers are installed. • The amount of data and hard drive access speed may affect the speed at which the data is backed up/restored. • It takes longer to back up a hard drive than to restore it. System Requirements: • At least 512 MB of system memory • VESA compatible graphics card • Windows® XP with SP1 or later, Windows® Vista • Xpress Recovery and Xpress Recovery2 are different utilities. For example, a backup file created with Xpress Recovery cannot be restored using Xpress Recovery2. • USB hard drives are not supported. • Hard drives in RAID/AHCI mode are not supported. Installation and Configuration Turn on your system to boot from the Windows Vista setup disk. A. Installing Windows Vista and Partitioning the Hard Drive Step 1: Click Drive options. Step 2: Click New. "*" Xpress Recovery2 checks the first physical hard drive in the following sequence: The first PATA IDE connector, the second PATA IDE connector, the first SATA connector, the second SATA connector and so forth. For example, when hard drives are attached to the first IDE and the first SATA connectors, the hard drive on the first IDE connector is the first physical drive. When hard drives are attached to the first and second SATA connectors, the hard drive on the first SATA connector is the first physical drive. -63 - Unique Features Step 3: Step 4: When partitioning your hard drive, make sure After the operating system is installed, right- to leave unallocated space (10 GB or more is click the Computer icon on your desktop recommended; actual size requirements vary, and select Manage.

GIGABYTE Q-Flash and @BIOS are easy-to-use and allow you to update the BIOS without the need to enter MSDOS mode. Additionally, this motherboard features the DualBIOSTM design, which enhances protection for the safety and stability of your computer by adding one more physical BIOS chip. What is DualBIOSTM? Motherboards that support DualBIOS have two BIOS onboard, a main BIOS and a backup BIOS. Normally, the system works on the main BIOS. However, if the main BIOS is corrupted or damaged, the backup BIOS will take over on the next system boot and copy the BIOS file to the main BIOS to ensure normal system operation. For the sake of system safety, users cannot update the backup BIOS manually. What is Q-FlashTM? With Q-Flash you can update the system BIOS without having to enter operating systems like MS-DOS or Window first. Embedded in the BIOS, the Q-Flash tool frees you from the hassles of going through complicated BIOS flashing process. What is @BIOSTM? @BIOS allows you to update the system BIOS while in the Windows envi...
