Remove Heatsink

Locate the processor heatsink on the logic board
(Figure 5). Place a small flat blade screwdriver
between the latch and the ZIF socket (Figure 5).
Press down on the top of the latch with your finger
while you press the screwdriver against the side of
the latch until you see the latch unhook from the
ZIF socket tab. Unhook the latch on the other side
of the heatsink and remove the latch. Once the
heatsink is unlatched, gently lift it away from the
processor and set it aside, but not on the mother-
board. There is no need to disconnect the wire
from the heatsink.

Remove Processor Card

To unlatch the ZIF socket lever (Figure 6), push the
lever down and then out to clear the side tab. Once
the level is clear of the side tab, rotate the lever up
90˚. Gently lift the existing processor card up and
out of the ZIF socket.

Install Encore/ZIF Processor Upgrade
Card

1. Remove the Encore processor upgrade card

from the anti-static package, making sure to
handle the card by the edges (Figure 7).
Gently peel the pin protection foam off the
Encore card. Transfer the foam to the processor
card you removed from the computer. With
the foam attached, place it into the anti-static
package and store it in a safe place.

2. Notice that one corner of the Encore processor

upgrade card, identified as position 1, does not
have a pin (Figure 8).
