nForce 750i SLI Motherboard
Installing the CPU
Be very careful when handling the CPU. Make sure not to bend or break any pins on the back. Hold
the processor only by the edges and do not touch the bottom of the processor.
Use the following procedure to install the CPU onto the moth-
erboard.
1. Unhook the socket lever by pushing down and away from
the socket.
2. Lift the load plate. There is a protective socket cover on
the load plate to protect the socket when there is no CPU
installed.
3. Remove the protective socket cover from the load plate.
4. Remove the processor from its protective cover, making
sure you hold it only by the edges.
It is a good idea to save the cover so that whenever you
remove the CPU, you have a safe place to store it.
5. Align the notches in the processor with the notches on the
socket.
6. Lower the processor straight down into the socket with out
tilting or sliding it into the socket.
Note: Make sure the CPU is fully seated and level in the
socket.
7. Close the load plate over the CPU and press down while
you close and engage the socket lever.
