The diagram is provided as a visual guide to help you install the socket
processor and may not be an exact representation of the processor you have.
Step 1
: Lift the lever on the socket until it is approximately 90
o
or as far back as
possible to the socket.
Step 2
: Align the processor with the socket. There are keyed pins underneath
the processor to ensure that the processor’s installed correctly.
Step 3
: Seat the processor firmly into the socket by gently pressing down until
the processor sits flush with the socket.
Step 4
: Place the socket lever back down until it locks into place. The
installation is finished.
Take care when installing the processor as it has very fragile connector pins
below the processor and can bend and break if inserted improperly.
