Chapter 7.10 System Board and Memory Option Removal and Replacement
Removal and replacement procedures for both the system board and associated
COMPAQ memory options (including ROMs) are included in this section.
Although it is possible to remove and replace memory options in a COMPAQ
Portable and COMPAQ PLUS Personal Computer without removing the system board,
it is not recommended because of the limited amount of space inside the
chassis.
Removing the system board allows close examination of memory chips.
