Technician Notes
WARNING:
Only authorized technicians trained by Compaq should repair
this equipment. All troubleshooting and repair procedures are detailed to
allow only subassembly/module level repair. Because of the complexity of the
individual boards and subassemblies, the user should not attempt to make
repairs at the component level or to make modifications to any printed circuit
board. Improper repairs can create a safety hazard. Any indications of
component replacement or printed circuit board modifications may void any
warranty.

When requesting information or ordering spare parts, the computer serial number should be provided to Compaq.
The serial number can be found on the front right side of the chassis (between the CD/DVD/Zip drives and the drive
door hinge), and on the rear of the computer above the power supply.
