2.6.2 CPU installation
To install the CPU:
1. Locate the 775-pin CPU socket on the motherboard.
Before installing the CPU, make sure that the socket box is facing
towards you and the load lever is on your left.
To prevent damage to the socket pins, do not remove the PnP cap
unless you are installing a CPU.
2. Press the load lever with your thumb (A) and move it to the left (B)
until it is released from the retention tab.
