Installing a Processor

To install a processor, refer to Figure 63 and follow these instructions:

1. Before trying to insert the processor, verify that the processor release mechanism is in the open

or unlocked position. See number 1 in Figure 63.

2. Position the processor, with heat sink attached, over the processor socket, inside the four posts.

See number 2 in Figure 63. When the processor is centered in the socket, the weight of it will

cause the processor to drop into the socket; do not apply force.

3. Once the processor is in the socket, gently press the processor to verify the processor is seated.

4. Using a 2.5-mm hex driver, rotate the processor release mechanism 90 degrees clockwise so

that the indicator tab shows the processor socket is locked. See number 3 in Figure 63.

5. Tighten the four captive screws in a cross-pattern to 6 inch-lbs to secure the processor to the

processor mechanism on the main board.

6. Install the power pod. See the instructions that follow.

Installing a Power Pod

To install a power pod, refer to Figure 63 and follow these instructions:

1. Place the power pod into position on the main board processor retention mechanism.

2. Slide the power pod to engage the power pod connector with the connector on the processor as

shown by the arrow next to number 5 in the figure below.

3. Tighten the four captive screws on the power pod to secure it to the processor mechanism on

the main board.
