Once aligned, carefully lower the CPU
straight down to the socket. (Do not
drop the CPU on the socket. Do not
move the CPU horizontally or verti-

the socket.)

With the CPU inside the socket, inspect
the four corners of the CPU to make
sure that the CPU is properly installed.

If the CPU is properly installed into the
socket, the plastic PnP cap will be auto-
matically released from the load plate
when the load lever is pushed in the
lever lock. Remove the PnP cap from
the motherboard.
Warning: Please save the plastic
PnP cap. The motherboard must be
!
shipped with the PnP cap properly
installed to protect the CPU socket
pins. Shipment without the PnP cap
properly installed will cause dam-
age to the socket pins.
