Notes: Always connect the power cord last and remove it before adding, remov-
ing or changing any components. Make sure to install the processor into the CPU
socket before you install the CPU heat sink.
Intel's boxed Xeon CPU package contains the CPU fan and heat sink assembly. If
you buy the CPUs separately, use only Intel-certified heat sinks and fans.
Make sure to install the heat sink backplate and the serverboard into the chassis
before you install the CPU heat sink and fan (see below).
Inspect the Xeon 5400/5200 CPU socket and make sure that the CPU plastic cap
is in place and none of the socket pins are bent. Otherwise, contact the retailer
immediately.
