System Components
Replacing or adding a processor
The system is compatible with the Intel
®
Pentium
®
III 667 and 733 MHz and
faster processors with 133 MHz front-side bus (FSB). Up to two processors may
be installed in the system.
When replacing a processor, or adding an additional processor, order a
Pentium III processor upgrade kit from Gateway. The kit includes the Pentium
III processor, a fan/heatsink, and a disposable electrostatic wrist strap.
To replace a processor:
1
Turn off the system and disconnect the power cord and modem cord (if
installed) and all other external peripheral devices.
2
Open the case by following the instructions on page 17. (See “Preventing
static electricity” 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 processor retention bracket holding the processor to be removed.
5
Push the handle of the screwdriver toward the processor. When the tab
that locks the processor in place opens, lift up slightly on the side of the
processor.
Caution A heatsink or fansink must be installed on each processor.
Installing a processor without a heatsink or fansink could
result in damage to, or failure of the processor.
