Installing or Replacing a Processor
The Pentium Pro microprocessor in the
HP Vectra XU 6/xxx PC,
and in the
HP Vectra VT 6/xxx PC,
is held in a zero insertion force (ZIF) socket.
The
HP Vectra XU 6/xxx PC
is also supplied with a second, empty socket,
in which an optional second processor can be installed (D3559A). Each
processor is accompanied by its own voltage regulator module (VRM). The
operating system must be configured to use the second processor. Note that
some operating systems do not support two processors.
If the original processor is replaced by a faster processor, the configuration
switches must be changed, as specified in the table on page 21. If two
processors are installed, both must be set to operate at the same bus
frequency and processor frequency.
To install a new processor:
1
Lay the computer on its side.
2
Install the voltage regulator module (VRM).
