which is included in the package.
First locate the Atom D525 CPU then put the metal plate included in CPU cooler
package onto the solder side of the PCB with its four legs inserted into these four
mounting holes around the CPU, then attach the CPU cooler onto the CPU card by
fastening the four screws, one into each leg of the metal plate. Fasten the first screw
loosely, then loosely engage the second screw diagonally across from the first one,
then half fasten the third, and fourth screws. Finally snug all four screws completely,
following the same order.
