Installing A Second Processor - HP xw4200 Install Manual

Step 3—Install the Second Processor
After you have prepared the workstation for installation, perform the following steps to install the
processor. For product-specific information, refer to the Service and Technical Reference Guide for your
HP workstation at http://www.hp.com/support/workstation_manuals.
Ä CAUTION: Failure to follow the workstation preparation instructions and these installation steps could
result in an improperly installed processor, causing extensive system damage.
NOTE: The second processor must be of the same speed, cache, size, and type as the primary processor.

Installing a Second Processor

1. Raise the second processor socket handle fully (the full swing angle of the lever is approximately 135
degrees).
CAUTION: Processor pins are delicate and bend easily. Use extreme care when placing the processor
Ä
in the socket.
2. Line up the triangle on the top of the processor with the triangle on the corner of the processor socket
and install the processor into the socket. Ensure that the underside of the processor is level with the top
of the processor socket. Lightly press down on the top of the processor while closing the socket lever.
NOTE: Your system board may look different than shown below.
3. Check for proper processor seating in the socket by carefully trying to lift the processor out of the
socket with your fingers. A properly seated processor does not lift out of the socket.
4. Remove and discard the thermal grease protective liner from the bottom of the new fansink and set the
fansink over the processor.
NOTE: Do not touch the exposed thermal grease when handling the fansink.
