socket. Once aligned, carefully place
the CPU into the socket.
Do not drop

against the socket or against any pins
of the socket, which may damage the
CPU and/or the socket
.
4. With the CPU inserted into the socket,
inspect the four corners of the CPU to
make sure that it is properly installed

lower the silver CPU retention plate into
place.
5. Carefully press the CPU socket lever
down until it locks into its retention
tab. For a dual-CPU system, repeat
these steps to install another CPU into
the CPU#2 socket (and into CPU#2,
#3 and #4 sockets for a quad-CPU
configuration).
