Processor Installation 5

Figure 1-2. Removing a Processor

CAUTION: Be careful not to bend any of the pins on the ZIF socket when removing

the processor. Bending the pins can permanently damage the system board.

Carefully, lift the processor out of the socket and leave the release lever up

so that the socket is ready for the new processor.

After removing the processor, place it in an antistatic container for reuse,

return, or temporary storage. Do not touch the bottom of the processor.

Touch only the side edges of the processor.

If you are permanently removing the processor, you must install a

processor blank and a heat-sink blank in the CPU2 socket to ensure proper

system cooling. Adding the blank is similar to installing a processor.

See "Installing a Processor".
