Installation Procedure

You must adhere to the step-by-step procedures listed on the following pages to

successfully install the AMD Athlon and AMD Duron processors in a personal

computer system motherboard. Any deviation from this procedure may result in a

processor failure.

You can installl the processor in the motherboard either before or after installing the

motherboard in the system chassis. It is usually easier to install the processor onto the

motherboard before installing the completed assembly into the case.

Normally it is better to install the processor and heatsink before installing any

memory modules.

It is recommended that you trial-fit the heatsink on the processor socket to verify that

the fan power cable can easily reach a designated connector. If there are any

problems, go to step 20 and follow the instructions.

Caution: Never start the processor unless the heatsink is properly and firmly

attached. THERMAL FAILURE WILL RESULT—THE PROCESSOR WILL BE

PERMANENTLY DAMAGED.

Note: In this guide, the AMD Athlon or AMD Duron processor is installed in Socket A

of the motherboard before installing the motherboard and processor assembly into the

system chassis. This is usually the easiest way to install the processor and heatsink.
