Replacing a processor

When replacing a processor, order a processor upgrade kit from Gateway.

To replace a processor:

1

Turn off the server and disconnect the power cord and all external
peripheral devices.

2

Remove the back top panel. (See “Preventing static electricity discharge”
on page 25 and “Removing the back top panel” on page

3

Remove the EMI foam cover over the processors.

Caution

A heatsink must be installed on each processor. Installing
a processor without a heatsink could result in damage to,
or failure of, the processor.
