Rev. A00
INTRODUCTION
This document contains instructions that are intended only for authorized service personnel. Eagle
800 computers contain a high-output power supply, which produces current levels high enough to
make it unsafe for unauthorized persons to perform work inside the chassis.
This document describes the Eagle 800 Series II computer package in the deskside chassis. It covers the
following procedures:
•
Removing your computer's side panel.
•
Electronic equipment handling precautions.
•
Printed circuit board configuration options.
•
Installing memory.
•
Peripheral installation.
•
Drive replacement or adding another drive
•
Restoring the System Volume Software
•
Eagle 800 Series II Optimal BIOS Settings
ACCESSING YOUR COMPUTER
When adding additional equipment or servicing your computer, you will need to remove two thumb
screws on the edge of the rear panel, unlock the side panel (the one with the latch), swing the panel out,
and remove it. This will expose the inside structure of your computer, including the power supply, main
logic boards, and peripherals.
Lay the case down so that the open side is up. This will facilitate gaining access to the internal system
areas.
ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
With the AC power cord unplugged and the side cover removed, the components inside your computer
are vulnerable to damage caused by static discharge. Your body and clothing can store an electrical
charge that can damage or destroy unprotected electronic components. Before handling any computer
hardware, make sure your work area is properly protected against static discharge. There are a number of
commercially available static protection devices, like the wrist strap shown in Figure 1, designed
specifically to protect your equipment from harmful static discharge.
