Socket-T System Board Replacement
Procedure Update
This document provides updated information for replacing a system board that has a Socket-T
processor socket.
NOTE:
See the latest version of the Installation and Troubleshooting Guide on support.dell.com
for instructions on how to remove and replace the system board.
Install the Processor Socket Protective Cover on the
Defective System Board Prior to Shipping
CAUTION:
Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform
troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the
online or telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is
not covered by your warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product.
Before returning the defective system board to Dell, transfer the processor socket protective cover
from the new replacement system board to the defective system board. Installing the socket
protective cover onto the system board that you are returning helps prevent accidental damage
to the socket pins during handling or shipping. See Figure 1.
