Frequently Asked Questions - GeForce 6800 GT GIGABYTE

How do I install the Gigabyte GeForce 6800 GT?
Power off your computer and unplug it. Insert the card into the AGP slot, secure with screws, connect the power cable from your PSU, and install the latest drivers from NVIDIA.
What power supply is recommended for the GeForce 6800 GT?
A 350 W power supply with a 4-pin Molex connector is required. For stable operation, a quality PSU with combined +12V rating of at least 18A is advised.
Is the GeForce 6800 GT compatible with Windows 10?
Yes, but you may need to use legacy drivers from the Windows Update or install the NVIDIA ForceWare 258.96 driver for basic functionality. Some modern features may not work.
How can I connect multiple monitors to this card?
The card has dual DVI-I outputs. You can connect two monitors using DVI cables. Use adapters for VGA if needed. Enable dual display in NVIDIA Control Panel.
My GeForce 6800 GT is not detected. What should I do?
Ensure the card is firmly seated in the AGP slot, the power connector is attached, and the PSU is sufficient. Check in Device Manager; if yellow exclamation appears, reinstall drivers. Also test the card in another system if possible.
How do I clean the graphics card?
Power off and unplug the PC. Use compressed air to blow dust from the fan and heatsink. Do not use liquids or vacuum cleaners. Handle the card by its edges to avoid static damage.
Which drivers do I need for the GeForce 6800 GT?
Download the NVIDIA ForceWare drivers for Windows XP/Vista/7 (version 175.19 or later). For Windows 10, use the 258.96 driver from NVIDIA's legacy archive.
Can I use this card for modern gaming?
The GeForce 6800 GT supports many older games (pre-2008) at moderate settings. It lacks features like DirectX 10 and modern shaders, so new titles may not run well.
How do I enable SLI with this card?
This card supports NVIDIA SLI via a bridging connector. Install two identical 6800 GT cards, connect the SLI bridge, enable SLI in the NVIDIA Control Panel, and ensure your PSU can handle the load.
The fan on my card is not spinning. What should I do?
Check if the fan is blocked by dust. If not, the fan may have failed. Replace the cooler assembly or use a third-party VGA cooler. Do not run the card without active cooling.

GIGABYTE GeForce 6800 GT - Hardware Installation - 3

Expansion cards contain very delicate Integrated Circuit (IC) chips. To protect them against damage from static electricity, you should follow some precautions whenever you work on your computer.

  1. Turn off your computer and unplug power supply.
  2. Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components. If you do not have one, touch both of your hands to a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case.
  3. Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the components whenever the components are separated from the system.

The card contains sensitive electric components, which can be easily damaged by static electricity, so the card should be left in its original packing until it is installed.

Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat.

Inspect the card carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may cause damage to your card. Be sure there are no shipping and handling damages on the card before proceeding.

3.3. BIOS Flash Utility

BIOS update procedure:

Note: Please download the newest BIOS from our website (www.gigabyte.com.tw) or contact your local dealer for the file.

If you want to realize the BIOS flash information, please refer to detail on subsection 5.1. "How to reflash the BIOS".

4. Troubleshooting Tips

The following troubleshooting tips may help if you experience problems. Contact your dealer or GBT for more advanced troubleshooting information.

■ Check that the card is seated properly in the AGP slot.
■ Ensure that the display cable is securely fastened to the card's display connector.
■ Make sure that the monitor and computer are plugged in and receiving power.
If necessary, disable any built-in graphics capabilities on your motherboard. For more information, consult your computer's manual or manufacturer.

(NOTE: Some manufacturers do not allow the built-in graphics to be disabled or to become the secondary display.)

■ Make sure you selected the appropriate display device and graphics card when you installed the graphics driver.

If you have problems during bootup, start your computer in Safe Mode. In Windows® 98 SE and Windows® Me, press and hold the CTRL key until the Microsoft® Windows® Startup Menu appears on the screen. Then select the number for Safe Mode, and press Enter. (You can also use F8 to bring up the Microsoft Windows® Startup Menu.) In Safe Mode, bring up the Device Manager and check for duplicate display adapter and monitor entries if you are only using one graphics card.

For more assistance, use the Troubleshooting Guide located in the Windows® Help or contact your computer manufacturer.

GIGABYTE GeForce 6800 GT - Troubleshooting Tips - 1

If necessary, adjust your monitor's setting by monitor's adjust panel to make the screen looks focused, crisp, and sharp. (Please refer to the monitor's manual.)
