Solution

CAP PROBLEM OVERVIEW: How to Remove and Replace X2200 M2 CPU and Heatsink

WHAT SKILLS DOES THE ENGINEER NEED?
Trained, Competent, Service Engineer.

Task Complexity: 3

Time Estimate: 90 minutes

WHAT STATE SHOULD THE SYSTEM BE IN TO BE READY TO PERFORM THE
RESOLUTION ACTIVITY?

o Power off the system and remove the cover
o Unfasten the four screws securing the heatsink to the board
o Twist the heatsink slightly to the right or left to break the seal with the thermal grease.
o Lift the heatsink away from the CPU.
o Place the heatsink upside-down on a flat surface to prevent the thermal grease from contaminating other components.
o Pull the socket release lever up to the fully open, perpendicular position.
o Open the CPU cover.
o Lift the CPU out of the socket, leaving the release lever in the open position.
Note Ensure that no thermal grease that might be left from the heatsink comes into contact with the CPU socket or underside of the CPU chip.

To Install the CPU and Heatsink

Unpack the new CPU.
o If you are installing a second CPU into a formerly single-CPU system, you will need to remove the socket cover before installing the new CPU
o Ensure that the socket release lever is in the fully open, perpendicular position and the CPU cover is open
o Align the small triangle, on the upper left corner of the CPU, with the triangle on the corner of the socket.
o Insert the CPU into the socket.
o When the CPU is fully seated in the socket, close the CPU cover.
o Rotate the socket release lever down until it snaps into place, securing the CPU in the socket.
o Use the syringe to apply approximately 0.1 ML/CC of thermal grease in a circular pattern to the top of the CPU.
o Gently distribute the thermal grease and remove any excess so that only an extremely thin, uniform layer remains. If any voids or crevices appear that could lead to air pockets, reapply the grease until you achieve a thin but compact consistency.
o Use an alcohol pad to remove all thermal grease from the bottom of the heatsink.
o Inspect the heatsink for dust and lint. Clean if necessary.
o Carefully position the heatsink on the CPU, aligning it with the mounting posts to reduce movement after it makes initial contact with the layer of thermal grease.
 Fasten the four screws attaching the heatsink to the motherboard.
