Installing a CPU
The Cyclone is designed to support single Pentium
processors. Follow the steps below to install a processor:
1.
Turn off the computer and remove its cover.
2.
Locate the ZIF socket illustrated in Figure 2-1.
3.
Lift the lever of the socket.
4.
Locate pin 1 on the processor and pin 1 on the socket
(refer to Figure 2-1). Gently place the processor into
the socket, making sure pin 1 on the processor and
pin 1 on the socket are aligned.
5.
Push the lever down until it locks into place.
6.
Make sure the speed and the voltage selection
jumpers are set correctly (refer to Chapter 2 - Jumper
Settings).
WARNING:
Pentium processors require a heat-sink with a
cooling fan. Failure to provide adequate cooling of the
processor may seriously affect system performance or cause
permanent damage to the processor.
NOTE: The heatsink mounting spring can be directly mounted
on the ZIF Socket 7.
