IMPORTANT: Always connect the power cord last and always remove it
before adding, removing or changing any hardware components. Make
sure that you install the processor into the CPU socket before you install
the CPU heatsink.
2-2 Xeon EM64T (Nocona) Processor and Heatsink
Installation
When handling the processor package, avoid placing direct
pressure on the label area of the fan. Also, do not place the
motherboard on a conductive surface, which can damage the
BIOS battery and prevent the system from booting up.

CPU Installation
1. Lift the lever on the CPU
socket: lift the lever completely
as shown on the picture on the
right; otherwise, you will
damage the CPU socket when
power is applied. (Install CPU1
first.)
2. Insert the CPU in the socket,
making sure that pin 1 of the
CPU aligns with pin 1 of the
socket (both corners are
marked with a triangle). When
using only one CPU, install it
into CPU socket #1 (Socket #2
is automatically disabled if only
one CPU is used).
3. Press the lever down until
you hear the click, so you can
be sure that the CPU is
securely installed in the CPU
socket.
