Figure 4-16 Removing the PHM
Use a protective cover to protect the CPU socket to avoid damaging socket
pins after the PHM has been removed.
The gold pins on the CPU are fragile and can be easily damaged if touched.
During removal and installation, always keep the gold pins side up and DO
NOT touch the pins when processor dedicated insertion/removal tool (CPU
tray) is unavailable.
