Replacing the system board
To replace the system board:
1
Remove the side panel by following the instructions in
“Removing the side panel” on page 31
2
Disconnect any expansion card cables from the cards
and from the system board, noting their locations and
orientation. (You will reconnect the cables after you
reinstall the cards.) You can also mark the cables with
tape labels to simplify reconnecting cables later.
3
Open the card retention lever.
4
Remove any expansion cards. You can slightly seesaw
the card end-to-end to loosen the card, but do not bend
the card sideways.
