NOTICE: If you received a flash BIOS update program diskette or CD with the
replacement microprocessor, you must update the BIOS after replacing the
microprocessor module. For instructions on updating or reflashing the BIOS, see the
Dell Portable Computer BIOS Update Guide.
NOTICE: Proper seating of the microprocessor module does not require force.
NOTICE: A microprocessor module that is not properly seated can result in an
intermittent connection and subsequent failures.
1. Align the pin-1 triangle on the microprocessor toward the pin-1 triangle in the
socket, insert the microprocessor into the socket, and move it around slightly until
you feel it settle into the socket.
When the microprocessor module is correctly seated, all four corners are aligned to
the same height. If one or more corners of the module are higher than the others, the
module is not seated correctly.
