Removing the CPU.
To remove the CPU, unscrew the screws on the handle and gently pull the
handle up until the CPU is released from its slot. Be careful not to bend the
motherboard.
NOTE ON USING A SINGLE CPU:
If you are using a single CPU, Tyan recommends that the CPU be installed in
the CPU2 slot. The default slot on the Thunder X is the CPU2 slot. If you
choose to install your CPU in the CPU1 slot, you will not be able to monitor
your CPU with your system management software.
2.6 Add-on Card Installation
There are a few rules you need to follow when plugging in a card. In order to
assure proper operation and a quick installation, adhere to these guidelines:
•
If you are going to install a PCI-Bus interface card on your system,
be aware that any one of the two PCI slots can support a Master
or Slave device.
•
NEVER force a card into a slot. If it doesn’t fit, look at the socket
on the computer to make sure there are no wires or other
obstructions to the slot.
•
NEVER plug an ISA card into a PCI slot or a PCI card in an ISA
slot. You will void your warranty and damage your system board if
you do this.
•
When plugging the card in, especially when installing long cards,
try to push the entire card in at one time. Don’t force one end of
the card into the socket first and then the other. This will create a
rocking motion between the card and the slot and it will damage the
pins within the socket.
•
Make sure that the cards are seated securely into the slots.
•
Before turning on the system, make sure no cards are touching
If you follow these basic guidelines, there shouldn’t be any problems with
installation. However, if you do encounter any problems, have a qualified
professional install your cards for you or contact your card manufacturer.
Remember, always read the manuals and installation notes that come with the
adapter cards. They contain important information which will help you install
the components right, the first time.
