Replacing or adding a processor 57
To remove the processor:
1 Open the locking lever on the processor socket by moving the lever
slightly out to the side and then lifting it up 90 degrees.
2 Lift the old processor straight up and out of the socket.
To install the new processor:
1 Hold the new processor over the empty processor socket and verify that
pin 1 on both the processor and the socket are aligned. Pin 1 is near the
marked corner.
2 Gently place the new processor into the socket.
3 Secure the processor by lowering the locking lever until the lever latches
into place. The processor will slip into place without pressure when
aligned correctly.
