1.2 Installing the CPU
Warning:
• Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the
power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from
the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to
the system board, peripherals, and/or components.
• Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or
any metal object before handling the CPU to avoid damage
caused by static electricity.
1. Push the lever sideways, away
from the socket, then lift it up to
a 90oangle.
2. Position the CPU above the
socket then align the gold mark
on the corner of the CPU
(designated as pin 1) with pin 1
of the socket.
3. Insert the CPU into the socket
until it is seated in place. The CPU
will fit in only one orientation
and can easily be inserted
without exerting any force. Once
the CPU is in place, push down
the lever to lock the socket. The
lever should click on the side tab
to indicate that the CPU is
completely secured in the socket.
Important:
Installing a heat sink with cooling fan is necessary for proper heat
dissipation. Apply a thin layer of thermal paste on top of the CPU.
Failure to do so may result in overheating the CPU.
Snap the lever

If you encountered problems while using an ATAPI CD-ROM drive
that is set in Master mode, please set the CD-ROM drive to Slave
mode. Some ATAPI CD-ROMs may not be recognized and cannot be
used if incorrectly set in Master mode.
Important Notice on Using IDE Drives and a Serial ATA Drive
Serial ATA uses the primary IDE’s master channel. Therefore, if a serial
ATA drive is connected to the serial ATA connector, DO NOT con-
nect an IDE device to IDE-P’s Master channel. IDE drives can be con-
nected to the primary slave, secondary master and secondary slave
channels.
