8. Remove the plastic microprocessor socket cover. Store the microprocessor socket cover in the
event that you later remove the microprocessor and need the socket cover to protect the pins on
the socket. Then, remove the protective cover that protects the gold contacts on the bottom of the
new microprocessor.
Figure 63. Removing the microprocessor socket cover
Notes:
• Do not remove the socket cover until you install a microprocessor into the socket. If you remove the
microprocessor, install the socket cover or a new microprocessor immediately.
• Do not drop anything onto the microprocessor socket while it is exposed. The socket pins must be
kept as clean as possible.
• Do not touch the pins on the microprocessor socket and the gold contacts on the bottom of the
new microprocessor.
