Removing the Processor
The procedure in this section explains how to remove a processor from
your Personal Workstations system board. Note that this section

WARNING Turn the Personal Workstation off and unplug the power cord
before installing or removing the processor.
To remove a processor, follow this procedure:
1. Remove the left-side panel as explained in the section “Removing the
Left-Side Panel” in this chapter.
2. Put on the static-grounding strap that was shipped with your
processor and attach it to the metal chassis of your Personal
Workstation. Next, remove the processor from its anti-static bag.
