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.)
