Before You Begin

Before You Begin
The TurboChip installation should take less than 15 minutes to complete.
Before you begin, however, there is one very important point to be aware of.
First, notice the location of pin-1 on the TurboChip upgrade denoted by a white
triangle on the bottom of the unit. This corner of the upgrade must match pin-1
on the processor socket (See figures below). Your Pentium
be using either a Socket 5 or Socket 7 type processor socket. pin-1 orientation
is standard for both socket types. Take a few moments to read the section below
before beginning the installation process.
Pin-1 Orientation
The location of pin-1 on the TurboChip must be oriented to match pin-1 on the
processor socket. The TurboChip upgrade is keyed to fit only one way into the
CPU socket. If the pins are aligned, the upgrade should easily slide into the
socket. Refer to the figures below for proper orientation:
