Introduction

The purpose of EVAL-2 is to make sure the computer will boot-up and the CPU speed is fast enough to be reused.

Turn on the above spot light and clear debris off EVAL-2 counter top. ( screws and anything that may scratch or damage a case, etc. )

Look in the boxes on the left and find VIDEO CARDS ( AGP and PCI cards ) , and the RAM CARDS ( DDR, SDRAM, and RAMBUS cards ). Look on the shelf under the EVAL-2 counter and find an extra POWER SUPPLY . These items are used to evaluate the computers so if you use them ALWAYS REMEMBER TO RETRIEVE THEM FROM THE COMPUTER AND PUT THEM BACK INTO THE BOXES so they can be used to evaluate other computers.

Select the computer that you are going to evaluate and carefully place it on top of the EVAL-2 counter top.
