Installing a CPU
The M7S-Hi is designed to support Intel Pentium and
AMD processors. Follow the steps below to install a
processor:
1.
Turn off the computer and remove its cover.
2.
Locate the ZIF socket illustrated in Figure 2-1.
3.
Lift the lever of the socket.
4.
Locate pin 1 on the processor and pin 1 on the socket
(refer to Figure 2-1). Gently place the processor into
the socket, making sure pin 1 on the processor and
pin 1 on the socket are aligned.
5.
Push the lever down until it locks into place.
6.
Make sure the speed selection jumpers are set cor-
rectly (refer to Chapter 2 - Jumper Settings).
NOTE: A VRM module is required for Pentium processors
that support MMX and for the AMD processors.
WARNING:
Pentium processors require a heat-sink with a
cooling fan. Failure to provide adequate cooling of the proces-
sor may seriously affect system performance or cause perma-
nent damage to the processor.
