Processor Power Module (PPM)
Each Intel Pentium III processor supplied by Compaq comes with a Processor Power Module
(PPM) (DC-to-DC converter). A PPM is removed when it needs to be replaced or when
replacing the system board.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system
components to cool before touching them.
To remove a PPM:
1. Complete the preparation procedures. See “Preparation Procedures” earlier in this chapter.
2. Remove the access panel. See “Access Panel” earlier in this chapter.
3. Push both release tabs (1) outward until the tabs release, and then gently lift up the
PPM (2).
