Installing and Removing the Heat Sink

10 Rotate the processor shield upward and out of the way. See Figure 3-17.
11 Lift the processor out of the socket and leave the release lever up so that

the socket is ready for the new processor.

Be careful not to bend any of the pins on the ZIF socket when removing

the processor. Bending the pins can permanently damage the system board.

NOTE:

In single-processor configurations, a processor must be installed in socket
