Processor Subsystem Removal and
Replacement
The system has a processor cartridge that connects to a Slot 1 edge connector on
the system board. The processor cartridge is secured to the connector in a
retention mechanism. When a cartridge is inserted in the connector, the VID
pins program the voltage regulator on the system board to the required voltage
for the processor.
NEC recommends that you contact your NEC dealer or NEC
service center for assistance in upgrading your processor.
Incorrect installation of the processor cartridge and heat sink
can damage the processor, system board, or both. Carefully
follow all installation instructions provided with your upgrade
processor and the procedures in the following sections.
Ensure that you have the correct heat sink for the processor
being installed. Celeron, Pentium II, and Pentium III
processors use different heat sinks. Do not use the heat sink
from the removed processor.
When upgrading the processor, first remove the processor currently installed in
the system, then install the upgrade processor.
