This chapter provides subassembly/module level removal and replacement procedures for the
Compaq Deskpro 1000 Series of Personal Computers.
Before removing or replacing a subassembly, safeguard the CMOS settings, by writing them
down, making a print screen of each CMOS setup page, or using a third-party CMOS rescue
software to store the settings in a file on a write-protected diskette.
✎
To facilitate reassembly of any part of the computer, note the orientation of each
cable connector and the routing of each cable before you disconnect it.
After completing all necessary removal and replacement procedures, run the CMOS Setup Utility
to reconfigure the computer. See Chapter 7, “Utilities,” for instructions on how to run the CMOS
Setup Utility.
