1.6 Central Processing Unit (CPU)
The motherboard comes with a surface mount LGA775 socket designed for the Intel®
Pentium® 4 processor in the 775-land package.
y
Your boxed Intel® Pentium® 4 LGA775 processor package should
come with installation instructions for the CPU, fan and heatsink
assembly. If the instructions in this section do not match the CPU
documentation, follow the latter.
y
Upon purchase of the motherboard, make sure that the PnP cap is
on the socket and the socket pins are not bent. Contact your
retailer immediately if the PnP cap is missing, or if you see any
damage to the PnP cap/socket pins/motherboard components.
ADVANSUS will shoulder the cost of repair only if the damage is
shipment/transit-related.
y
Keep the cap after installing the motherboard. ADVANSUS will
process Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) requests only if
the motherboard comes with the cap on the LGA775 socket.
y
The product warranty does not cover damage to the socket pins
resulting from incorrect CPU installation/removal, or
misplacement/loss/incorrect removal of the PnP cap.
