Align pin 1 on the CPU with pin 1 on
the CPU socket and gently insert the
CPU. The CPU is keyed to prevent
incorrect insertion. Do not force the
processor into the socket. If it does not
go in easily, check for mis-orientation
and reinsert the CPU.
Make sure the processor is fully
inserted into the socket.
