Replacing
the
microprocessor
Important
Before
you
install
or
remove
any
component,
read
“Important
safety
information”
on
page
v.
These
precautions
and
guidelines
will
help
you
work
safely.
1.
Take
notice
of
the
orientation
of
the
beveled
corner
on
the
microprocessor
2.
This
is
important
when
reinstalling
the
microprocessor
on
the
system
board.
2.
Make
sure
that
the
handle
used
to
remove
the
microprocessor
is
fully
in
the
up
position.
Otherwise
the
microprocessor
pins
might
be
damaged
when
installing
the
microprocessor.
3.
Position
the
microprocessor
so
that
the
pins
are
aligned
with
the
socket
and
with
the
beveled
corner
in
the
orientation
as
shown.
4.
Lower
the
handle
until
it
is
fully
in
the
down
position.
This
locks
the
microprocessor
in
place.
5.
Place
the
heat
sink
on
a
clean
work
surface.
6.
Remove
the
cleaning
pad
from
its
package
and
use
the
cleaning
pad
to
wipe
the
thermal
grease
from
the
bottom
of
the
heat
sink.
Notes:
1.
Be
sure
that
all
of
the
thermal
grease
is
removed.
2.
The
cleaning
pad
and
thermal
grease
are
separate
FRUs
and
are
not
included
with
the
system
board
or
microprocessor
FRUs.
These
must
be
ordered
separately
and
shipped
along
with
the
FRUs
being
replaced.
7.
Use
the
thermal
grease
syringe
to
place
16
uniformly
spaced
dots
of
0.01ML
each
on
the
top
of
the
microprocessor.
