Unpacking
The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage.
When unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static pro-
tected.
IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cord last and always remove it
before adding, removing or changing any hardware components. Make
sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install
the heatsink. The P4DMS-6GM can support either one or two Xeon 512K L2
cache processors of 2.40 GHz+. If installing one processor only, install it
into CPU socket #1.

5-2 PGA Processor and Heatsink Installation
When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the
motherboard on a conductive surface, which can damage the
BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up.
1. Lift the lever on the CPU socket.
Lift the lever completely or you will
damage the CPU socket when
power is applied. (Install a
processor into CPU #1 socket
first.)

2. Insert the CPU into the socket. Make sure
that pin 1 of the CPU is seated on pin 1 of
the socket (both corners are marked with a
triangle). When using only one CPU, install it
into CPU socket #1 (CPU socket #2 is auto-
matically disabled if only one CPU is used).

3. Press the lever down until
you hear it *click* into the
locked position.
