8. Place the processor in conductive foam and store in an anti–static
package.
To install the processor:
ATTENTION: Do not force the processor into the
socket. The processor will only fit in the socket one way.
Refer to the figure on the previous page for proper
orientation. Notice that both the socket and processor
have a flat corner (chamfer) that must be aligned
1. Make sure the socket locking lever is up. Position the processor in
the socket. Make sure the processor is oriented the same way as
when removed. The processor pins will not completely align with
the socket if the processor is not oriented correctly. The processor
fits easily into the socket; do not press on the processor or bend any
pins.
2. Lightly hold the processor in the socket and push down on the socket
lever until it locks in place.
3. Carefully remove the protective plastic liner on the pad.
4. Position the heat conductive pad and heat sink on the processor. The
heat sink and pad should be approximately centered over the
processor. Make sure you do not wrinkle or remove conductive
grease from thermal pad.
Note:
If the pad is damaged, it cannot be used. Either replace the
pad or use a layer of thermal grease as a substitute.
5. Place the spring clip over the heat sink. Position one end of the
spring clip under the socket tab. Use a needle nose pliers to position
the other end of spring clip under the tab on other side. On versions
with an extended heat sink, insert the spring clip into the slot on the
heat sink first and then into the slot on the opposite side (see
illustration previous page). Be careful not to let the pliers slip.
6. Secure the power supply with the same screws removed.
ATTENTION: Risk of Electrical Shock. Do not use
power supply mounting screws exceeding 0.438 inches
(11.125 mm). Screws that are longer than recommended
may come in contact with voltage sources within the
power supply.
