9. Unpack the new processor.
If any of the pins on the processor appear bent, see " Getting Help ."
10. Align the pin-1 corner of the processor with the pin-1 corner of the ZIF socket. See Figure 6 -8 .
Identify the pin-1 corner of the processor by locating the tiny gold triangle on one corner of the processor. Place this corner in the same corner of the ZIF
socket identified by a corresponding triangle.
11. Install the processor in the socket.
Figure 6-8. Installing the Processor in the Socket
If the release lever on the processor socket is not positioned all the way up, move it to that position.
With the pin-1 corners of the processor and socket aligned, set the processor lightly in the socket, making sure all pins are matched with the correct
holes in the socket. Because the system uses a ZIF processor socket, do not use force, which could bend the pins if the processor is misaligned. When
the processor is positioned correctly, it drops down into the socket with minimal pressure.
When the processor is fully seated in the socket, rotate the socket release lever back down until it snaps into place, securing the processor.
12. Install the heat sink.
l If the new heat sink uses a foil thermal interface material strip, align the holes on both sides of the heat sink with the heat-sink posts on the
system chassis.
l If the new heat sink has a thermal grease tab, remove the tab and then align the holes on both sides of the heat sink with the heat-sink posts
on the system chassis.
13. Orient the securing clips as shown in Figure 6 -7 .
14. Position each securing clip over the heat-sink posts, then snap them onto the posts.
15. While holding down the rubber-coated tab with one hand, push the latch on the securing clip on the right until it locks the clip onto the post. Repeat
this step for the securing clip on the left.
16. Replace the cooling shrouds.
17. Close the system. See " Closing the System " in "Troubleshooting Your System."
As the system boots, it detects the presence of the new processor and automatically changes the system configuration information in the System Setup
program.
18. Press <F2> to enter the System Setup program, and check that the processor information matches the new system configuration.
See your User's Guide for instructions about using the System Setup program.
19. Run the system diagnostics to verify that the new processor operates correctly.
NOTE: Identifying the pin-1 corners is critical to positioning the processor correctly.
NOTICE: Positioning the processor incorrectly can permanently damage the processor and the system when you turn it on. When placing the processor
in the socket, be sure that all of the pins on the processor enter the corresponding holes. Be careful not to bend the pins.
