Ensure that the release lever on the processor socket is fully extended. CAUTION: Socket pins are delicate. To avoid damage, ensure that the processor is aligned properly with the processor socket, and do not use excessive force when you install the processor. Be careful not to touch or bend the pins on the system board. CAUTION: You must position the processor correctly in the processor socket to avoid permanent damage to the processor. 5.
