NOTE: The microprocessor shield brace may not be present on your system, if
the brace is not present continue with step 6.
5. Remove the 4-mm screw that secures the microprocessor shield brace
(see Figure 12).
6. Remove the microprocessor shield.
7. Rotate the arm of the thermal cooling assembly up and away from the
microprocessor module.

8. Use a microprocessor extractor tool to remove the microprocessor
module.
The tool fits on the left side of the module aligned with white marks on the
front and back edge of the processor board (see Figure 12).

1. Align the microprocessor connector on the left side of the board and press
down firmly on the metal plate that is directly over the connector.
When the microprocessor module is fully seated, all four corners are
aligned to the same height. If one or more corners of the module are
higher than the others, the module is not seated correctly.
2. To ensure the microprocessor module is fully seated, apply pressure over
the corner without the mounting screw hole.
NOTE: If your system uses a microprocessor shield with the brace as
shown in Figure 12, the 4-mm screw used in step 6 secures this corner.
3. Rotate the arm of the thermal cooling assembly into place.
4. Replace the microprocessor shield.
5. Replace the two 3-mm screws that secure the thermal cooling assembly
arm and shield to the microprocessor module.
6. Replace the 4-mm screw securing the shield brace (if present).
7. Tighten the three captive screws on the corners of the shield to secure the
microprocessor module and shield (see Figure 12).
