Xeon EM64T 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.
sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install
the CPU heatsink. Note that for the X6DVL-EG2 you need to install the Xeon
mounting plate under the board.
