WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal
system components to cool before touching them.
CAUTION: Processor socket 1 must be populated at all times. Failure to replace the
processor results in the system failing to boot and halting during POST. This error prevents the
system from functioning properly.
