Chapter 3.11 Processor Upgrade Option (Model 400 Only) This section provides installation and replacement procedures for the processor upgrade. The Compaq Contura 400 is the only model with the DX2/40 MHz Processor that can be upgraded to a DX2/50 MHz processor. Once the processor is installed, the upgraded processor overrides control of the processor on the system board. You do not have to remove the system board processor. NOTE: Use only the DX2/50 MHz processor in the upgrade option slot. To install the processor upgrade option, do the following: 1. Disconnect all power from the computer and remove the AC Adapter and battery pack (Section 3.2). CAUTION The computer becomes top heavy when the keyboard assembly is removed and the display is opened. To prevent damage to the display and the computer, ensure that the display assembly is opened at a 90-degree angle. 2. Remove the keyboard assembly (Section 3.7). 3. Disconnect the processor board from the two connectors on the system board (Figure 3-36).
