NOTE:
In a single-processor configuration, the CPU1 socket must be used.
1 If you are adding a second processor for the first time, remove the heat-
sink blank and the processor blank from the vacant processor socket.
Removing the blanks is similar to removing a processor. See "Removing a
Processor."
2 Unpack the new processor.
If the processor has previously been used in a system, remove any
remaining thermal grease from the processor using a lint-free cloth.
3 Align the processor with the socket keys on the ZIF socket. See
Figure 3-22.
4 Install the processor in the socket.
CAUTION:
Positioning the processor incorrectly can permanently damage the
system board or the processor. Be careful not to bend the pins in the socket.
With the release lever on the processor socket in the open position,
a
align the processor with the socket keys and set the processor lightly
in the socket.
CAUTION:
Do not use force to seat the processor. When the processor is
positioned correctly, it engages easily into the socket.
Close the processor shield.
b
Rotate the socket release lever down until it snaps into place.
c
5 Install the heat sink.
Using a clean lint-free cloth, remove the thermal grease from the heat
a
sink.
CAUTION:
Applying too much thermal grease can result in excess grease coming
in contact with and contaminating the processor socket.
Open the grease packet included with your processor kit and apply a
b
small amount of thermal grease (the size of a fingernail) to the center
of the top of the new processor.
Place the heat sink on the processor. See Figure 3-21.
c
Close the two heat-sink retention latches. See Figure 3-21.
d
6 Install the cooling shroud. See "Installing the Cooling Shroud."
7 Install the expansion card stabilizer. See "Installing the Expansion Card
Stabilizer."
