Step 3:
Inspect the CPU socket. Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the
socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with
compressed air.
Step 4:
Orientate the CPU properly. The contact array should be facing the CPU
socket.
Step 5:
Align the CPU pins. Locate the triangle mark and the four orientation notches
on the CPU. Align the triangle mark to the top-right corner of the CPU socket
and match the four orientation notches with the socket alignment keys
(Figure 4-3).
Step 6:
Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are
properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly.
