Intel Processor Installation Instructions

First Edition (March 2005)

Part Number 381735-001

Locating the CPU Socket

The server’s dual mPGA604 (604-pin) sockets support Intel Xeon

800 MHz FSB processors. The location of the two CPU sockets

(U6 and U18) is shown in the figure below.

Installation Guidelines

When installing a processor, observe the following important

guidelines:

•

Processor socket 0 (U6) must always be populated. If no

processor is installed in this socket, the system will fail to boot

and halt during POST. This error prevents the system from

functioning properly.

•

Handle the processor and heat sink with care. Damage to either

may affect processor performance.

•

The pins beneath the processor are very fragile. Do not bend or

damage them.

•

Always use a new heat sink when replacing processors. Failure

to use new components can cause damage to the processor.

•

Be sure that the server has the most recent ROM version.

Failure to flash the ROM before installing processors can cause

system failure.
