IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cord last and always remove it

before adding, removing or changing any hardware components. Make

sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install

the heatsink. The P4DLR+ can support either one or two Intel Xeon 512K L2

cache processors of 2.4+ GHz. If installing one processor only, install it

into CPU socket #1.

PGA Processor and Heatsink Installation

When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the
motherboard on a conductive surface, which can damage the
BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up.

1. Lift the lever on the CPU socket.

Lift the lever completely or you will

damage the CPU socket when

power is applied. (Install a

processor into CPU #1 socket

first.)

2. Install the CPU in the socket.

Make sure that pin 1 of the CPU is

seated on pin 1 of the socket (both

corners are marked with a

triangle). When using only one

CPU, install it into CPU socket #1

(CPU socket #2 is automatically

disabled if only one CPU is used).

Pin 1

3. Press the lever down until you

hear it *click* into the locked

position. See Figure 5-1 for

pictures of the 603-pin CPU socket

before and after the processor is

installed.
