1. Review the safety precautions listed in Statement 1 and Statement 5 in "Safety
information" on page 20.
2. Turn off the server and peripheral devices and disconnect all external cables and
power cords; then remove the cover (see "Removing the cover, door, and bezel"
on page 26 for details).
3. Remove the terminator card from the microprocessor connector. Store the
terminator card in a safe place in the static-protective package that your new
microprocessor is shipped in; you will need to install it again if you ever remove
the microprocessor and do not replace the microprocessor.
4. Install the microprocessor:
a. Touch the static-protective package containing the new microprocessor to any
unpainted metal surface on the server; then, remove the microprocessor from
the package.
b. Center the microprocessor over the microprocessor connector and carefully
press the microprocessor into the connector.
Note: To remove a microprocessor, pull upward on the microprocessor handle
tab.
5. Install the voltage regulator module (VRM) included in the microprocessor kit.
Attention: Use of other VRMs might cause your server to overheat.
a. Center the VRM over the VRM connector. Make sure that the VRM is oriented
and aligned correctly.
b. Press the VRM into the connector.
Note: If you remove the microprocessor later, remember to install the
terminator card in the appropriate microprocessor connector and to
remove the VRM.
