12. The new

PowerPC 604e

microprocessor

is mounted on

a

small

circuit board

an

array of connector pins underneath. The

pin

array

has

one

missing

pi

one

corner

so that

the

PowerPC 604e microprocessor can only be installed

one

direction. The processor side of the

13. Place the

new PowerPC

 

604e

microprocessor into position on

the

processor

socket. Make

sure

that

 

all

of the

pins

are

seated correctly

and that

are visible. Lower the socket lever

to

lock

the processor
