Preparing the Motherboard
The motherboard shipped in the box does not contain a CPU or memory. You
need to purchase these to complete the installation.
Installing the CPU
Be very careful when handling the CPU. Make
sure not to bend or break any pins inside the
socket. Hold the processor only by the edges
and do not touch the bottom of the processor.
Use the following procedure to install the
CPU onto the motherboard.**
**Please ensure that with single processor
usage you are using CPU socket 0 and the adjacent ram bank.
1.
Unhook the socket lever by pushing down and away from the socket.
2.
Put your finger on the tail of the load
plate and press the tail down
3.
Lift the load plate. There is a protective
socket cover in the socket to protect the
socket when there is no CPU installed.
4.
Remove the protective socket cover from
the CPU Socket.
Remove the processor from its protective
cover, making sure you hold it only by the
edges. It is a good idea to save the cover
so that whenever you remove the CPU,
you have a safe place to store it.
