Fixing processor in processor socket on the motherboard
Take the motherboard and place on any soft surface such as
cardboard. All new motherboards have a plastic cover placed on processor socket.
Release the lock handle to open the lid of processor socket.
Now remove the plastic cover fixed to lid. After removing the
plastic cover the processor socket has to look like this.
Now we have to place the processor in processor socket
Most
of the recent processors come without pins. Handling the processor is very
delicate. Do not hold or put your fingers in the middle of the processor. Hold
the processor as shown in the image
Always remember
the portion which has the name and the speed of the processor (For example: Intel
Dual Core 2.8 Ghz) must be on top. Look at the sides of the
processor where you can see small cuttings on both the sides.
You have to look for the same small notches on the motherboard and
place the processor properly.
Now
close the lid and press the lock handle down and fix it to lock the processor to the motherboard.
Make sure that your processor is placed properly in the motherboard processor socket
before locking the lid.
Processor fan will have four locking clips which have to be
fixed to the motherboard.
On the motherboard
you can see four small holes present around the processor socket. Place the
processor fan on the top of the processor and push the four locking clips one
by one to the holes present in the motherboard to firmly lock the processor fan.
If the locking clip is not firmly fixed then remove the locking clip by
rotating anti clock wise. You can see a directional image on the locking clip
to lock and unlock.
Processor fan comes along with four pin power supply wire.
After fixing the processor fan, you have to plug the processor
fan power supply wire to the motherboard for proper running of the fan. Look in
the motherboard for the name " CPU_FAN " or " CPU FAN " near to the
surrounding area of the processor socket.
You have to plug the processor fan
four pin power supply wire to the port called " CPU_FAN " or " CPU FAN " on the motherboard.
