2.6 CPU installation and upgrading
You can upgrade to a higher power Pentium processor at any time.
Simply remove the old CPU, install the new one, and set the jumpers
for the new CPU type and speed.
Warning! Always disconnect the power cord from your chassis
when you are working on it. Do not make connections
while the power is on as sensitive electronic
components can be damaged by the sudden rush of
power. Only experienced electronics personnel should
open the PC chassis.
Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge
before touching the PC board. Modern electronic
devices are very sensitive to static electric charges.
Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all
electronic components on a static-dissipative
surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not
in the chassis.
2.6.1 Installing a CPU in the ZIF socket
The PCM-9570/S provides a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket for
easy CPU installation.
1. Make sure the ZIF socket lever is in the upright position. To raise
the lever, pull it out to the side a little and raise it as far as it will
go.
2. Place the CPU in the empty socket. Follow the instructions that
came with the CPU. If you have no instructions, do the following:
Carefully align the CPU so it is parallel to the socket and the notch
on the corner of the CPU corresponds with the notch on the inside
of the socket. Gently slide the CPU in. It should insert easily. If it
doesn‘t, pull the lever up a little more.
3. Press the lever down. The plate will slide forward. You will feel
some resistance as the pressure starts to secure the CPU in the
socket. This is normal and will not damage the CPU.
