27) Observe that the CPU sockets on the new motherboard have protective covers; gently
remove these covers.
Note: EXTREME CARE
must be taken not to damage in any way the delicate pins used
in the CPU sockets on both the replacement motherboard AND the original (suspect)
motherboard. Once bent, these pins cannot be straightened resulting in the total loss of
the motherboard. These motherboards are valued at approximately $500 and this type of
damage is not covered under the MaxVision warranty.
Thus, once you've removed the protective CPU pin covers from the new motherboard,
immediately install them onto the suspect or bad motherboard before any additional
handling of either motherboard. The installation of one of the pin protectors is illustrated
in Figures 3-129, 3-130, and 3-131.

Observe that there is a hinged metal lid attached to the CPU socket. This lid should be raised
to a 45º angle (Figure 3-129) and the protective cover should be attached to the lid.
This requires a somewhat involved process. There are two "hooks" approximately ¼-inch apart
at one side of the protective cover. These hooks engage either side of a small flange on the
metal lid at the side of the hinge attached to the socket on the motherboard (Figure 3-129).
At the opposite side of the protective cover there are two small "posts" – one in either corner.
The protective cover should be pressed into place such that these posts engage with the
edge of the hinged metal lid that is farthest from the motherboard (Figure 3-130).
