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.
sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install
the CPU heat sink.
CPU Installation
1. Lift the lever on the CPU socket:
lift the lever completely as shown
on the picture on the right;
otherwise, you will damage the
CPU socket when power is
applied.
(Install CPU1 first.)
2. Insert the CPU in the socket,
making sure that pin 1 of the CPU
aligns with pin 1 of the socket
(both corners are marked with a
triangle). When using only one
CPU, install it into CPU socket #1
(socket #2 is automatically disabled
if only one CPU is used).
3. Press the lever down until
you hear the *click* so you
can be sure that the CPU is
securely installed in the CPU
socket.
