Replacing or Installing a Processor
Single-processor systems can be upgraded to dual-processor systems by
installing a second processor in the vacant processor socket. The second
processor must be of the same specification (type, speed and level-2 cache
memory capacity) as the existing processor.
Removing an Existing Processor
1
Switch off the display and PC Workstation. Disconnect all power cables
and any LAN or telecommunications cables.
2
Remove the PC Workstation’s cover (refer to page 22 for instructions):
3
If present, remove the heatsink fan’s power connector from the system
board, then remove the heatsink. You may need to use a tool to remove
release the spring retaining clip(s) holding the processor in place.
4
Remove the thermal bonding material from the underside of the
heatsink. You may need to scrape the material with an object such as a
coin to remove all traces of the old thermal interface.
5
Lift the Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) lever, located at the side of the
processor socket, until it is in the vertical position to release the pins of
the processor in the socket base. Lift out the processor carefully. To
avoid bending the processor pins, keep the body of the processor as
much as possible in the plane horizontal to the main board when
removing it.
6
Store the processor you have removed in an anti-static bag (for example,
the one provided with the replacement processor).
Installing a Processor
If you are installing a replacement processor, proceed directly to step 4.
1
Switch off the display and PC Workstation. Disconnect all power cables
and any LAN or telecommunications cables.
