Applicable to: World-Wide
Replacing a Processor
For Pentium processors, install the processor with the beveled corner aligned with the beveled corner of the processor socket.
For Type 6588, 6888, and other Types that have Pentium II processors, see "Microprocessor Removal (Type 6588,6888)".
For Dual Pentium II processors, jumper the processor speed to the slowest speed processor.
When a second Pentium Pro or Pentium II microprocessor is installed for Dual processor operation, the processor revision must be one under, the same, or one above from each other. To find the processor revision level, go to the configuration Setup and select:
1. Advanced Setup
2. Processor Control
3. Processor ID
The processor ID has four numbers, such as 0650.
The first two numbers, 06, designates the Pentium processor.
The second two numbers, 50, designates the processor revision level.In this case, revision levels of 49, 50, or 51 are acceptable.
Important
If the processor is not installed correctly, the system board and the processor can be damaged.
