PowerLeap™ Installation Guide
Opening Your Computer & Locating the CPU
1
Turn the computer off and disconnect all power cables from the computer.
2
Remove the cover from the computer (as described in the computer’s
documentation).
3
Locate the CPU on the computer’s motherboard. The CPU will be clearly labeled
with the manufacturer’s name (such as “Intel”), and markings identifying the CPU
model and speed (such as 80486DX2-66).
Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the
computer or optional equipment. Before the following procedures,
ensure that you are already discharged of static electricity.
Removing the CPU
If your computer’s CPU is
socketed
(see the earlier section of this chapter), remove it as
described below.
1
Make sure that the motherboard’s CPU socket is readily accessible. If the socket is
located under an expansion card or disk drive, you may have to remove the card or
drive.
2
Note the orientation of the pin 1 hole on the CPU socket. This hole will typically be
identified by a dot, beveled edge, or other marking.
