CPU Configurations
The following is a list of common ways the CPU may be configured on the system board.
The method used to install a processor in a 486-based computer should resemble one of the
following configurations.
If you have a ZIF socket with an overhead bar, call technical sup-
port BEFORE installing the QUICKCHIP!
Configuration 1
- Standard Socket without an OverDrive socket
Configuration 3
- Standard Socket WITH an OverDrive Socket
If the 486 is in the standard socket, you will remove the
486 processor with the chip extractor tool and install
the QUICKCHIP 133 into the empty standard socket.
DO NOT use the OverDrive socket.
You will unlock the socket using the side bar or
retaining screw, remove the 486 processor and install
the QUICKCHIP 133 into the empty ZIF socket.
If you have a ZIF socket with an overhead bar, call
technical support BEFORE installing the
QUICKCHIP!
Configuration 4
- Surface-Mounted (Soldered) Processor WITH OverDrive Socket
The 486 processor cannot be removed. You MUST
install the QUICKCHIP 133 into the OverDrive
Socket. REFER TO YOUR OWNER’S MANUAL TO
SET THE NECESSARY JUMPERS. Do not attempt to
remove a soldered chip.
Configuration 2
- ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) Socket
You will remove the 486 processor with the chip extractor tool and install the
QUICKCHIP 133 into the empty standard socket.
