Removing and Installing Parts
3 Align the pin-1 corner of the processor and socket.
NOTICE:
Socket pins are delicate. To avoid damage, ensure that the processor is
aligned properly with the socket, and do not use excessive force when you install
the processor. Be careful not to touch or bend the pins on the system board.
4 Set the processor lightly in the socket and ensure that the processor is level
in the socket. When the processor is positioned correctly, press it with
minimal pressure to seat it.
5 When the processor is fully seated in the socket, close the processor
cover.
6 Pivot the socket release lever back toward the socket and snap it into
place to secure the processor.
7 Replace the processor airflow shroud (see "Installing the Processor Airflow
Shroud Assembly" on page 149).
8 Reconnect the power cables to the POWER and 12VPOWER connectors
(see "System Board Components" on page 103) on the system board.
