Use the following procedure to install the
CPU onto the motherboard.

down
and
away
from the socket.
2.
Put your finger on the tail of
the load
plate and press the tail down
3.
Lift the load plate. There is a protective
socket cover in the socket to protect the
socket when there is no CPU installed.
4.
Remove the protective socket cover from
the CPU Socket.
