NOTICE: 

Disconnect the computer and attached devices from electrical outlets and remove any 

installed battery. 

NOTICE: 

To avoid ESD, ground yourself by using a wrist grounding strap or by periodically 

touching an unpainted metal surface on the computer. 

The system board's BIOS contains the system service tag number, which is also visible on a bar-code 

label on the bottom of the computer. The replacement kit for the system board includes a floppy disk 

or CD that provides a utility for transferring the service tag number to the replacement system board.
