Install Encore/ZIF Processor Upgrade Card
1. Remove the Encore/ZIF card from its anti-static package, making
sure to handle the card by its edges (Figure 74); your card may
differ from what is pictured. Gently peel the pin protection foam
off the Encore card, and then transfer it to the processor card you
removed from the computer. With the foam attached, place the
processor card into the anti-static package and store it, the heat
sink, and the jumper block in a safe place.
2. Turn the Encore/ZIF card so that the narrow end of the card is
pointing toward you, with the pins facing down. Plug the 8-pin
connector from the included power adapter cable into the 8-pin
connector on the Encore/ZIF card
(Figure 75); verify the con-
nector is plugged in securely.
3. Grasp the Encore/ZIF card so that the narrow end of the card is
on the left (Figure 76). Holding the Encore/ZIF card level with
the logic board and its long edges parallel to the video card,
align the card’s pins over the ZIF socket’s holes, and then care-
fully lower the Encore/ZIF card into the ZIF socket. With all the
pins aligned, the card will be easy to push into the socket; if you
encounter any resistance, raise the card and check for bent pins,
if none are bent, realign the card’s pins with the socket and gen-
tly lower it again.
Be very careful! Broken pins are not covered
under warranty.

WARNING: After removing the jumper block, you must care-
fully examine the jumper pins on the logic board and verify no
jumpers were left behind (Figure 73). Failure to remove any jump-
ers may prevent the Encore/ZIF from operating in your system. If you
do have to remove any jumpers, be sure to insert them back into the
jumper block in their original positions.
