IMPORTANT! Always connect the power cord last and remove it fi rst before add-

ing, removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install

the processor into the CPU socket before you install the heatsink and fan. The

X7DWU can support either one or two Xeon processors. If installing one processor

only, install it into CPU socket #1.

Notes:

1. Intel's boxed Xeon CPU package contains a CPU fan and heatsink assembly. If

you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use only Intel-certifi ed multi-direc-

tional heatsinks and fans.

2. When purchasing a Xeon CPU or when receiving a serverboard with a CPU

pre-installed, make sure that the CPU plastic cap is in place and none of the CPU

pins are bent; otherwise, contact the retailer immediately.

5-2 Processor and Heatsink Installation

When handling the processor, avoid placing direct pressure on the label

area of the fan. Also, do not place the serverboard on a conductive

surface, which can damage the BIOS battery and prevent the system

from booting up.

Installing the Processor

A black PnP cap is attached to

the load plate to protect the CPU

socket. Press the load lever down

and away from the retention clasp

to release the load plate from its

locked position.

Gently lift the load lever to open

the load plate.
