Processor 1. Prepare the computer for disassembly (see Preparing to Disassemble the Computer on page 26). 2. Remove the center access panel (see Hinge Cover Panel on page 27). 3. Remove the memory access panel (see Memory Access Panel on page 29). 4. Remove the drive access panel (see Drive Access Panel on page 31). 5. Remove the heat sink cover (see Heat Sink Cover on page 45). 6. Remove the heat sink (see Heat Sink (Thermal Module) on page 47). 7. Rotate the locking lever to its full open position (1). 8. Raise and rotate the microprocessor retainer to its fully open position (2). 9. Carefully lift the processor from the socket (3). CAUTION: Do NOT handle the pins in the processor socket. These pins are very fragile and handling them could cause irreparable damage. Once pins are damaged it may be necessary to replace the system board. The heat sink must be installed within 24 hours of installing the processor to prevent damage to the processor's solder connections. Figure 6-35 Removing the processor To install a new processor: 1. Place the processor in its socket and close the retainer. Make sure the slot in the processor fits into the post on the socket. 2. Secure the locking lever. If reusing the existing heat sink, go to step 3. If using a new heat sink, go to step 6. Processor 49
