1. Locate the CPU socket on the
motherboard.
• Your boxed Intel ® Pentium ® 4 LGA775 processor package should
come with installation instructions for the CPU, heatsink, and the
retention mechanism. If the instructions in this section do not match
the CPU documentation, follow the latter.
• Check your motherboard to make sure that the socket contacts are
not bent. Contact your retailer immediately if you see any damage
to the socket contacts/motherboard components. ASUS will
shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is shipment/
transit-related.
• The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket
contacts resulting from incorrect CPU installation or removal.
2. Press the load lever with your
thumb (A), then move it to
the left (B) until it is released
from the retention tab.
3. Lift the load lever in the
direction of the arrow to a
135º angle.
