10. Remove the 11 Type A (6-32) screws fastening the motherboard to the chassis.
11. With the disconnected cables moved out of the way, raise the front of the motherboard
and gently pull the board forward to clear the connectors from the rear panel.
12. Place the removed motherboard onto an antistatic surface.
Replacement Procedure
1. Remove the replacement motherboard from its antistatic container.
2. Before installing the replacement motherboard, verify that the mount holes are in
the same location on both boards. The chassis contains various mounting positions
for the motherboard standoffs. If necessary, standoffs can be removed.
3. Install the motherboard by inserting the connectors located at the rear into their
respective openings and sliding them through. This will allow the front of the
motherboard to move downward to the standoff mountings.
4. Verify that all standoffs are visible through the motherboard mounting holes.
5. Install the 11 motherboard mounting screws starting at a mounting hole in the vicinity
of the center of the motherboard but do not tighten.
6. Once all 11 screws are installed tighten the screws down starting from the center
and work outwards. This will help align the card slots with the rear card opening
on the chassis.
7. Raise the lever on CPU 1 socket.
8. Remove the processor from its antistatic container.
9. Inspect the top of the processor and the bottom of the heat sink for the proper
amount of thermal compound on the two components. If necessary add more thermal
compound sparingly. Use only enough to ensure a good thermal connection between
the two components.
10. Inspect the pins on the processor for bent or malformed pins. Straighten carefully
if necessary.
11. Reinstall the processor making sure the pin 1 markings are properly aligned.
12. Close and latch the socket lever.
13. Reinstall the heat sink using the mark you placed on the heat sink when the processor
and the heat sink were separated.
14. Seat the four screws loosely at first, then tighten them down securely in an X fashion.
15. Refer to the cable/header designator table on the preceding page and reconnect the
cables.
16. Remove the ram sticks from their antistatic container.
17. Install the rams sticks into the sockets provided aligning the socket and ram keys
properly.
18. Install the CPU air shroud carefully, insuring a proper fit.
19. Install the front cooling fans (4).
20. Install the rear cooling fans (2).
21. Check cable placement and routing ensuring there is no interference with the cooling
fans.
