Caution
Make sure you ground yourself by touching the metal
surface on the inside of the computer’s back panel before
you touch the processor. Then remain as stationary as
possible while you install it. Do not touch the pins on the
processor; handle it only by the edges.
2.
If there are any option cards in your way, remove them; see
“Removing an Option Card” for instructions.
3.
To open the socket, locate the handle at the base of the
socket. (The handle rests under a plastic tab.) Press the
handle down and away from the tab; then lift it up to
release the processor from the socket. The illustration in
step 6 shows this handle in the released position.
4.
Gently lift the processor straight up and set it aside.
5.
Remove the new processor from its package and inspect the
pins. If they are bent, do not install the processor; contact
your vendor for a new one. (Store the old processor in the
packaging included with your new processor, in case you
need to reinstall it later.)
