Important: Be careful when you handle the microprocessor and heat sink.
If the microprocessor and heat sink will be reused, do not contaminate the
thermal material between them.
Attention: The microprocessor retention latch is spring-loaded when the
microprocessor is in place. Releasing the latch too quickly or allowing it to
spring upward can damage the microprocessor and surrounding components.
7. Release the microprocessor retention latch by pressing down on the end,
moving it to the side, and slowly releasing it to the open (up) position.
