Warning:
You can install the CPU inside the socket only in one direction. Make sure
that it is properly inserted into the CPU socket before closing the load plate. If it
doesn't close properly, do not force it, as that may damage your CPU. Instead, open
the load plate again and check whether the CPU is properly aligned and securely
seated inside the socket.
