Hardware Upgrades

9.Reattach the hard drive cables.

CAUTION: If only one processor is installed and you are replacing that processor, be sure to install the processor in the primary processor socket or your workstation will not function.

10.Reinstall the memory expansion board. See “Reinstalling the Memory Expansion Board” in this chapter.

11.Reassemble the workstation.

When replacing the workstation access panel, be sure to tighten all four thumbscrews.

A manual Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL) upgrade is necessary when installing a second processor after the system has gone through the software unbundling process. If a second processor is installed prior to unbundling, a manual upgrade is not necessary. Compaq recommends that the software unbundling process be completed prior to installing additional components. For information on upgrading to a multiprocessor HAL, refer to the documentation included in your processor upgrade kit.
