4. Remove the cooling shroud.WARNING: The heat sink and processor are hot to the touch for some time after the system has beenpowered down. Allow the heat sink and processor to cool before handling them.CAUTION: Never remove the heat sink from a processor unless you intend to remove the processor. The heatsink is necessary to maintain proper thermal conditions.5. Remove the heat sink/heat-sink blank and processor/processor blank, as applicable.NOTE: The procedure to remove the heat-sink blank or processor blank is similar to removing a heat-sink orprocessor.6. Unpack the new processor.7. Align the processor with the socket keys on the ZIF socket.CAUTION: Positioning the processor incorrectly can permanently damage the system board or the processor.Be careful not to bend the pins in the socket.CAUTION: Do not use force to seat the processor. When the processor is positioned correctly, it engageseasily into the socket.8. With the release levers on the processor socket in the open position, align pin 1 of the processor, using pin 1position guide on the socket, as reference and set the processor lightly in the socket.9. Close the processor shield.10. Rotate the socket-release lever near the lock icon until it is locked in position.11. Similarly, rotate the socket-release lever near the unlock icon until it is locked in position.12. Using a clean lint-free cloth, remove the thermal grease from the heat sink.CAUTION: Applying too much thermal grease can result in excess grease coming in contact with andcontaminating the processor socket.13. Open the grease applicator included with your processor kit and apply all of the thermal grease in the applicator tothe center of the topside of the new processor.14. Place the heat sink on the processor.15. Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, tighten the heat-sink retention sockets.16. Install the cooling shroud.17. Close the system.18. Reconnect your system and peripherals to their electrical outlets, and turn on the system.19. Press to enter the System Setup and check that the processor information matches the new systemconfiguration.20. Run the system diagnostics to verify that the new processor operates correctly.Power SuppliesYour system supports either:• Two 495 W, 750 W, or 1100 W AC power supply modules or• Two 750 W or 1100 W DC power supply modulesNOTE: The DC power supply does not support mixed mode (one AC and one DC).NOTE: To avoid unplanned error logging, remove power from the source before unplugging the power cord fromthe 750 W DC power supply.90
