Installing a Processor Power Module
Every Pentium Pro Processor comes with a Processor Power module (DC to
DC converter) that provides power stability for the processor and the I/O
board.
The Processor Power module is keyed to ensure correct alignment. A notch in
the bottom edge of the module, near the center, must align with a tab in the
mounting bracket. The notch and tab will not line up if the module is turned
the wrong way.
