5-5 Installing Processors
Avoid placing direct pressure to the top of the processor
package. Always remove the power cord first before add-
ing, removing or changing any hardware components.
Processor Support
The P4SC8 has a single 478-pin microPGA socket, which supports Intel Pentium
4 or Celeron processors.
!
1. Lift the lever on the CPU socket.
2. Install the CPU in the socket. Make
sure that Pin 1 of the CPU is seated on
Pin 1 of the socket (both corners are
marked with a triangle).
3. Press the lever down until you
hear it *click* into the locked
position.
4. Apply the proper amount of thermal com-
pound to the CPU die. Place the heatsink on
top of the CPU aligning its holes with those on
the retention mechanism. Screw in two diago-
nal screws (ie. the #1 and #2 screws) until just
snug, then do the same with the remaining two
screws. Finish by fully tightening all four
screws (see Figure 5-4 on next page).
