The protective liner for the thermal material has actually been removed.
n
The long end of the clip is properly attached to the top of the socket.
n
Verify that the heatsink retaining clip is completely seated on both center
n
socket lugs.
The heatsink fan is plugged into the proper connector.

When the system is first powered-on, verify that the heatsink fan is turning at a
relatively fast speed. It is very easy to have installed the screws too tightly, caus-
ing the fan housing to bind. If the fan is not turning properly, check to see that all
the screws are tightened correctly.
