Removing and Installing a Processor

1.Power off the system and ensure it is disconnected from the AC power source.

2.Open the front door and remove the left side panel as described earlier in this chapter.

!CAUTION

Observe static precautions. Use an antistatic wrist strap.

Hold the processor only by its edges.

3.If your system has one processor and you are adding a second processor, then you must remove the termination board in the Slot 1 secondary connector and store it appropriately.

4.If your system has one processor and you are replacing it, leave the terminator board intact in the empty secondary processor connector. Remove the processor you want to replace.

5.If your system has two processors and you are replacing one or both, remove the appropriate one(s).

6.Pull the processor latches, (Figure 4-7,A) out away from the edges of the SECC2 cartridge to free them from the Universal Retention Module (URM).

7.Lift the SECC2 cartridge upward, out of the URM and place it on a grounded, static-free surface or conductive foam pad.

8.Put the old processor in a piece of conductive foam and store in an antistatic package.
