Chapter 3.11 Processor Upgrade Option (Model 400 Only)
This section provides installation and replacement procedures for the
processor upgrade. The Compaq Contura 400 is the only model with the
DX2/40 MHz Processor that can be upgraded to a DX2/50 MHz processor. Once
the processor is installed, the upgraded processor overrides control of
the processor on the system board. You do not have to remove the system
board processor.
NOTE: Use only the DX2/50 MHz processor in the upgrade option slot.
To install the processor upgrade option, do the following:
1. Disconnect all power from the computer and remove the AC Adapter and
battery pack (Section 3.2).
