2.5 Installing Hardware

※ DO NOT scratch the motherboard when installing hardware. An accidentally

scratch of a tiny surface-mount component may seriously damage the
motherboard.

2.5.1 CPU Socket 478 (Core Duo)

※ Be cautious when installing CPU into this socket. Prevent the contact pins of the

socket and the CPU from breaking or bending.

1. Use a flat-head screwdriver to turn the

screw bolt counter clockwise to unlock
position.

2. Carefully hold the CPU by both of its

edges above the CPU socket. Align the
gold-triangle mark with the Pin-1 of CPU
socket. Place the CPU vertically and
easily down into the socket.

Do not force the CPU in; it only fits in
one orientation.

3. Use a flat-head screw driver to turn the

screw bolt clockwise from its unlock
position to the lock position.
