Replacing the processor
The system is compatible with the Intel
®
Pentium
®
III 100 and 133 MHz
front-side bus (FSB) processors.
The system board will support the following processor/bus configurations:
■
350 MHz through 700 MHz processors with 100 MHz FSB
■
533 MHz, 600 MHz, and faster processors with 133 MHz FSB
When replacing a processor, order a Pentium processor upgrade kit. The kit
includes the Pentium processor, a heat sink, and a disposable electrostatic
wrist strap.
To replace the processor:
1
Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord, modem cord (if
installed), and all external peripheral devices.
2
Open the case (see “Opening the case” on page 17), observing the “Static
electricity precautions” on page 15.
3
Disconnect the power supply cable of the processor fan from the CPU
fan connector on the system board.
4
Place the head of a flat-bladed screwdriver behind the tab on one side
of the retention bracket.
Important A heat sink must be installed on each Pentium processor.
