NOTE:
The pin 1 corner of the processor has a triangle that aligns with the triangle on the pin 1 corner on the processor
socket. When the processor is properly seated, all four corners are aligned at the same height. If one or more corners of
the processor are higher than the others, the processor is not seated properly.
3. When the processor is fully seated in the socket, pivot the release-lever down and place it under the tab on the processor
cover.
