6. Instrucións de funcionamento

6.1 Primeiro arranque e configuración da BIOS

1. Despois de montar todos os compoñentes, conecte o monitor, o teclado e o rato.
2. Acende o teu ordenador.
3. Press the designated key (usually DEL or F2) repetidamente durante o inicio para entrar na utilidade de configuración da BIOS/UEFI.
4. Na BIOS, verifica que todos os compoñentes instalados (CPU, RAM, almacenamento) sexan detectados correctamente.
5. Configura a orde de arranque para instalar o sistema operativo desde unha unidade USB ou unha unidade óptica.
6. Garda os cambios e sae da BIOS. O sistema reiniciarase.

6.2 Instalación do controlador

• Check if the power supply unit (PSU) is switched on and functioning.
• Verifique a conexión do interruptor de alimentación do panel frontal.
• Try reseating RAM modules and the graphics card.

Sen visualización no monitor:

• Ensure the monitor is connected to the correct video output (either integrated graphics on the motherboard or dedicated graphics card).
• Check monitor power and input selection.
• Reseat the graphics card (if installed) and RAM modules.

Inestabilidade/fallos do sistema:

• Comproba as temperaturas da CPU e da GPU. O sobrequecemento pode causar inestabilidade.
• Ensure RAM modules are properly seated and compatible. Test with one RAM stick if multiple are installed.
• Actualiza os controladores e a BIOS ás versións máis recentes.
• Executa ferramentas de diagnóstico de memoria para comprobar se hai defectos na RAM.

CMOS Battery Issue (Loss of Time/Settings):

• If the system loses time or BIOS settings after being powered off, the CMOS battery (CR2032) may need replacement.
