Remove Processor Card
1. Lower the processor card retainer. Slowly
squeeze together the two holding clamps to
release the retainer and lower it away from the
logic board (Figure 4).
2. Gently lay the computer on its side so that you
may easily gain access to the interior of the
computer.
3. Remove the current processor card from the
Processor Card Slot (Figure 5) and set it aside.
Be careful! The metal heatsink on the processor
card may be hot.

Remove Level 2 Cache Card from
85XX Models
If you have a Power Macintosh 85XX the Level 2
cache card will need to be removed. For further
information consult your computer’s documentation
or see Chapter 12, “Removing a Level 2 Cache
Card.” For the Power Macintosh 95XX, the L2
cache is soldered onto the logic board and cannot
be removed.
Reset CUDA Switch
Reset the CUDA switch on the logic board
(Figure 6). It is located directly inline with the
Processor Card Slot. Resetting this switch ensures
that a new upgrade card is recognized at the
next startup.
