ANTEC ISK 300-65 HTPC A8-3820

again,
Make sure to 'demagnetize yourself'
then install RAM / APU / THERMAL PASTE / COOLER
(dont be afraid of youtube'ing if needed)

remove the drive cage from isk300-65 case

then, install I/O Shield Plate (comes with your motherboard) on your Case.

place your motherboard standoffs so you can place the motherboard on them.

now, place your motherboard inside your case and secure it (4 screws only).

I have download some drivers from http://www.asrock.com/mb/download.asp?Mo...X&o=Win764

the only 2 drivers i have not downloaded was SATA RAID Driver and SATA RAID Utility ver:3.3.1540.5 and also downloaded all the Utility drivers as well. Do i need to install all of them or do the motherboard come installed with these drives all ready

All i have on mine is:

7/25/2011 Windows® 7 64bit
52.35MB AMD all in 1 driver ver:8.86RC2

7/25/2011 Windows® 7 64bit
5.50MB Realtek Lan driver ver:7.044


Because I only use the HDMI audio out....

The easiest way to install AMD latest driver is this autodetec option- AMD Driver Autodetect....

Now how do i go about installing the drivers. I mean once i put everything together and hit the power on button will i go straight to the bios. Plus should the usb that has these drivers on be formatted in fat 32 and also should i unzip the files as well

i dont understand.

when your ready to install your Operating System,

go in your BIOS, make sure to set the boot order to boot on USB 1st

save and exit BIOS

then insert your O/S install USB Pen Drive in one of your front usb ports

and walla!

O/S install will begin!

Thanks for that eskro. What i wanted to say is how do i go about installing the drivers i download for the motherboard form

http://www.asrock.com/mb/download.asp?Mo...X&o=Win764

do i do this after i have installed windows and inside windows like you install normal software or do i do that in the bios

yeah man take it easy,

install your O/S 1st.

then, when you finally see your desktop appearing,

from there, u can install your drivers.
