Incorrect installation of the CPU into the socket may bend the pins and
severely damage the CPU!
To install the CPUs:
1. Locate the CPU1 socket on the
motherboard. Flip up the socket
lever and push it all the way to the
other side.
Make sure that the socket lever
is pushed back all the way.
Otherwise the CPU does not fit
in completely.
• The motherboard supports either one or two CPUs. If you are installing
only one CPU, you MUST install it in CPU socket 1.
• If you are installing two CPUs, install in the CPU socket 2 first.
