Figure 2-21. Removing the CPU Module
Reassembly Notes
 
 
Make sure the module is fully seated on its socket, and that none of its pins are bent or otherwise
damaged.
 
 
Make sure the yellow triangle marked on the corner of the CPU module lines up with the
corresponding yellow triangle on the corner of the socket.
 
 
Carefully insert the tip of the flat-blade screwdriver in the CPU module lock mechanism, and turn
the screwdriver a few degrees clockwise until the mechanism clicks into its LOCK position. (The
CPU socket moves slightly to the right when this happens.)
