3. HARDWARE SETUP

CPU

3. H/W SETUP

1. Place the motherboard on the anti-static foam that was shipped with the mother-

board. Do not place the motherboard on a hard surface while installing the URM
as the black fastener sleeves must protrude through the bottom of the mother-
board.

2. Locate the Slot A connector on the motherboard.
3. Position the retention mechanism on either side of the Slot A connector.
4. Making sure that the top retainer pins are not pushed in, press down on the

retention brackets until the black fastener sleeves fit snugly against the board.

5. Push the four retainer pins completely down into the black fastener sleeves until

the head of each pin is securely seated.

WARNING!

Installing the URM while the retainer pins are pushed in will not

only cause the URM to be installed improperly but will also damage the URM.

3.6.4 Installing the Processor

NOTE: The following steps assume that you have already attached the heatsink and
installed the URM into your motherboard.

1. Make sure that the processor substrate key is aligned with the Slot A connector key.
