Replacing the processor 63
6
Replace the heat sink:
a Hook the metal clip on the heat sink to the tabs on the processor
socket. Make sure the heat sink is level with the processor and the
metal clips are securely attached.
b Connect the heat sink fan cable to the fan connector on the system
board.
7 Close the case. (See “Closing the case” on page 23 for instructions.)
8 Reconnect the cords you removed, then turn on the computer.
You do not have to manually adjust the processor speeds. Your system BIOS
automatically detects the processor speed for you.
Caution It is very important that the heat sink makes direct contact
with the processor or else it will not cool correctly, resulting
in processor failure.
