Replacing the Processor Module

NOTICE:

Ensure that the cam lock is in the fully open position before seating the processor module. Seating the

processor module properly in the ZIF socket does not require force.

NOTICE:

A processor module that is not properly seated can result in an intermittent connection or permanent

damage to the processor and ZIF socket.

1. Align the pin-1 corner of the processor module with the pin-1 corner of the ZIF socket, and insert the processor

module.

NOTE:

The pin-1 corner of the processor module has a triangle that aligns with the triangle on the pin-1 corner of the

ZIF socket.

NOTICE:

You must position the processor module correctly in the ZIF socket to avoid permanent damage to the

module and the socket.

When the processor module is correctly seated, all four corners are aligned at the same height. If one or more corners

of the module are higher than the others, the module is not seated correctly.

2. Tighten the ZIF socket by turning the cam screw clockwise to secure the processor module to the system board.

NOTE:

When you replace the thermal-cooling assembly, be sure to place a new thermal pad on the thermal-cooling

assembly such that the pad fits between the assembly and the processor. You can place the new thermal pad directly

on any existing thermal pad already installed on the thermal-cooling assembly. It is not necessary to remove an

existing pad or to clean the surface.

NOTE:

When replacing the thermal-cooling assembly, hold up the mylar flap on the assembly so that the flap rests on

top of the fan when the thermal-cooling assembly is in place.
