2. Insert the CPU in the socket,

making sure that pin 1 of the CPU

aligns with pin 1 of the socket

(both corners are marked with a

triangle). When using only one

CPU, install it into CPU socket #1

(Socket #2 is automatically disabled

if only one CPU is used).

3. Press the lever down until

you hear the *click* so you

can be sure that the CPU is

securely installed in the CPU

socket.

2. Place the heatsink on top of the

CPU so that the four mounting holes

are aligned with those on the retention

mechanism.

3. Screw in two diagonal screws (ie

the #1 and the #2 screws) until just

snug (-do not fully tighten the screws

to avoid possible damage to the CPU.)

4. Finish the installation by fully

tightening all four screws.
