CPU Socket 775 Configuration Steps:
1. Locate the CPU socket 775 on your
mainboard and nudge the lever away from
the socket as shown. Then lift the lever to a
140-degree angle (A). Next, lift up the iron
cover (B).
2. There are two distinctive marks located
near the corners of the socket on the same
side as the lever as shown (C). Match these
marks with the marks on the CPU and
carefully lower the CPU down onto the
socket (D).
3. Replace the iron cover and then lower the
lever until it snaps back into position (E). This
will lock down the CPU (F).
4. Smear thermal grease on the top of the CPU. Lower the CPU fan
onto the CPU/CPU socket and secure it using the attachments or
screws provided on the fan. Finally, attach the fan power cord to the
CPUFAN header.
Attention: DO NOT touch the CPU pins due to they are sensitive and easily to
be damaged. Also, make sure that you have completed all installation steps
before power-on the system. Finally, double-check that the heatsink is properly
installed and make sure that the CPU fan power cord is securely attached
(cooling problems may cause overheating and lead to damage the CPU and
other sensitive components).
