Installation disk, Gigabyte mobo

I have also posted this on the Gigabyte news group.

I have built a new system.
MB Gigabyte 965P-DS3 Rev 3.3
OS Vista Ultimate
CPU E6600
BIOS 12/27/2006-P965-1CH8-6A79LG0DC-00
MEM DDRII 800MHz 2GB

The SiSoftware Sandra program says that my FSB speed is 1x343MHz. Isn't
this low for such a system?

System works good! I'm just trying to understand the features. Trying to
check internal temperatures got me started.

I try to install the Gigabyte installation disk that came with the MB. It
says 12DC1-10I965S-102R Ver 1.02

An error message immediately appears, "This version of XPRESS install does
not support WIN98/ME". Now that is really confusing!

The Gigabyte support site has no provisions for contacting Technical
Support. I did find a download for Easy Tune B7.0124.1. I downloaded the
file GBTTOOLS_GBT_ET5.EXE but have not installed the file.

The original install disk is supposed to have an Easy Tune 5 capability and
something called Gigabyte C.O.M. (System Management Utility).

My questions a
1. Any ideas as to why I get such an error message?
2. Do I want to install the Easy Tune EXE?
3. What is the Gigabyte C.O.M. System Management Utility?

Any comments on the above would be helpful.

HTH.

Thanks. That was very useful. Somehow I just couldn't find the forest for
the trees.
