PGA Processor and Heatsink Installation

When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the
!
motherboard on a conductive surface, which can damage the
BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up.
IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before
adding, removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you
install the processor into the CPU socket before you install the heatsink. The
X5DMS-8GM/X5DMS-6GM can support either one or two Intel Xeon processors
of up to 3.20 GHz. If installing one processor only, install it into CPU socket #1.
1. Lift the lever on the CPU socket.
Lift the lever completely or you will
damage the CPU socket when
power is applied. (Install a proces-
sor into CPU #1 socket first.)
2. Install the CPU in the socket.
Make sure that pin 1 of the CPU is
seated on pin 1 of the socket (both
corners are marked with a triangle).
When using only one CPU, install it
into CPU socket #1 (CPU socket #2
is automatically disabled if only one
CPU is used).
3. Press the lever down until you
hear it *click* into the locked posi-
tion. See Figure 5-1 for pictures of
the 604-pin CPU socket before and
after the processor is installed.
