Installing A Cpu - Aaeon SBC-400 User Manual

To install the CPU, follow the instructions that came with it. If no
documentation was provided, the general procedure for installing a
CPU are outlined below:
1. Lubricate the pins on the CPU with lubricant for PGA devices.
This makes the CPU slide in much easier and greatly reduces
the chance of damaging the pins and other components.
2. Carefully align the CPU so that it is parallel to the socket. Make
sure that the notch on the corner of the CPU matches the notch
on the inside of the socket.
3. Gently push the CPU into the socket. There will probably be a
small gap between the CPU and the socket even when it is fully
seated. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE!
When you install a new CPU, you may have to adjust other settings
on the board, such as CPU type, CPU clock and PCI speed, to
accommodate it. Make sure that the settings are correct for your
CPU. Improper settings may damage the CPU.
