Installing the Pentium II Processor
1. Mount the Pentium II Retention Mechanism: The retention mechanism is
designed to fit into the SEC slot only one way. Be sure to align the notch in the
mechanism with the small rib on one side of the slot and that the mechanism is
properly seated on the board. Then, screw the captive nuts in place.
TIP: Orient the mechanism’s lock holes toward the motherboard’s chipset (see
motherboard layout for the location of the Intel 440LX AGPset).
WARNING! Do not overtighten the captive nuts. Doing so could damage your
motherboard. Tighten captive nuts to no more than 6±1 inch/pound.
