Before installing the drivers, first install the operating system. (The following instructions use 

Windows 8 as the example operating system.)

 

After installing the operating system, insert the motherboard driver disk into your optical drive. Click 

on the message "Tap to choose what happens with this disc" on the top-right corner of the screen 

and select "Run 

Run

.exe." (Or go to My Computer, double-click the optical drive and execute the 

Run.exe program.)

After inserting the driver disk, "Xpress Install" will automatically scan your system and then list all the drivers that 

are recommended to install. You can click the 

Install All

 button and "Xpress Install" will install all the recommended 

drivers. Or click

Select File in 

HDD/USB/FDD

Load Profiles

 

If your system becomes unstable and you have loaded the BIOS default settings, you can use this function 

to load the BIOS settings from a profile created before, without the hassles of reconfiguring the BIOS 

settings. First select the profile you wish to load and then press <Enter> to complete. You can select 

Select 

File in HDD/USB/FDD

 to input the profile previously created from your storage device or load the profile 

automatically created by the BIOS, such as reverting the BIOS settings to the last settings that worked 

properly (last known good record).
