2. Lift the edge of the motherboard opposite the connector panel to release the motherboard from the chassis, and then gently
slide the motherboard out of the chassis.
NOTE:
Make sure to lift the edge of the motherboard near jumper area SPKR1 so that the underside of this area clears the nearby
screw standoff.
Make sure that the connectors on the motherboard clear the cutouts in the chassis as you remove the board. Avoid handling
contacts or using excessive force.

2 Make sure that the motherboard connectors clear the cutouts in the chassis (cutouts not shown).
3. If you are replacing the motherboard with a new motherboard, remove the following from the old motherboard:
• DIMM (see “DIMM” on page 17 )
• CPU (see “CPU and CPU cooling assembly” on page 24 )
• Security chip (see “Motherboard jumpers” on page 19 )
Transferring the security chip
Transferring the security chip from the old motherboard to the new motherboard ensures that all customer-purchased software
options are transferred.
IMPORTANT:
Make sure to remove the security chip from the old motherboard before returning the old motherboard to your authorized
service/support center. If you fail to install the security chip on the new motherboard, the imagePASS will not start up and
all customer-purchased software options will be lost.
To transfer the security chip to the new motherboard
1. Locate the extraction tool provided in the new motherboard kit.
2. Remove the security chip from socket J12(CRYPTO) on the old motherboard (see
“Motherboard jumpers” on page 19 ).
Carefully position the extraction tool around the edges of the security chip, and pull the chip straight out of the socket. Make
sure not to put stress on surrounding components.
IMPORTANT:
Do not rock the chip from side to side when removing it from the socket. Doing so may result in permanent damage to the
security chip.
3. Inspect the security chip and carefully straighten any bent pins with needlenose pliers.
4. Install the security chip in socket J12(CRYPTO) on the new motherboard.
