Replace the microprocessor securing clip.
Orient the clip as shown in Figure 8-10, and hook the
unfolded end of the clip over the tab on the edge of

The microprocessor's speed jumper should be set for
the installed microprocessor's rated internal speed.
For example, for a 200-MHz Pentium Pro processor,
a jumper plug should be installed on the jumper
