7. Spread an even layer of thermal
compound on the CPU die.
3. Remove the ICETM Cooling Module from the chassis and put it aside.
5. Orientate the CPU and socket, aligning the yellow triangle on the
cornerof the CPU with the triangle on the socket. Making sure the
CPU is perfectly horizontal, insert the CPU into the socket. Close
the load plate, lower the CPU socket lever and lock in place.
6. Remove the protective socket cover.
4. First unlock and raise the socket lever, lift the metal load plate on the
CPU socket.
Note: This 775 pin socket is fragile and easily damaged. Always use
extreme care when installing a CPU and limit the number of
times that you remove or change the CPU.
