2-3-3 LGA 775 CPU Installation Guide
Socket Preparation
1. Opening the socket:
Note: Apply pressure to the corner with right hand thumb while opening/closing the load lever,
otherwise lever can bounce back like a “mouse trap” and WILL cause bent contacts (when
loaded)
i. Disengage Load Lever by depressing down and
out on the hook to clear retention tab
ii. Rotate Load Lever to fully open position at
approximately 135degrees
iii. Rotate Load Plate to fully open position at
approximately 100degrees
2. Remove PnP Cap (Pick & Place Cap)
i. With left hand index finger and thumb to support the load plate edge, engage PnP cap with right
hand thumb and peel the cap from LGA775 Socket while pressing on center of PnP cap to assist in
removal.
ii. Set PnP cap aside. Always put PnP cap back on if the processor is removed from the socket.
iii. Visually inspect PnP cap for damage. If damage observed, replace the PnP cap.
Note: After PnP cap removal, make sure
socket load plate and contacts are free of
foreign material; Refer to Overview Module for
FM cleaning.
Note: Optionally, remove PnP cap after CPU insertion.
This will compromise the ability to visually
inspect socket.
