System Unit Repair
DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY
This section contains step-by-step disassembly procedures. The hard disk drive, and 3 1/2-
inch diskette drive are installed and included in these disassembly procedures. Reassembly is
the reverse of disassembly. Each procedure is supported by a simplified disassembly illus-
tration to facilitate removal. The detailed exploded-view diagram and parts lists are shown
later in this section.
A Phillips-head screwdriver is the only required tool. For complete disassembly of the sys-
tem unit, follow the disassembly order listed in Table 5-1. To reassemble, follow the table in
reverse order.
Individual removal procedures do not require the total disassembly of the computer. Each
of the following subsections lists the parts that must be removed before beginning the
removal procedure. To reassemble, follow the procedure in reverse order.
