Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do before starting the system board replacement?

Follow safety instructions. Discharge static electricity by touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.

How do I ensure a safe electrical connection during component removal?

Always unplug your computer from the electrical outlet and ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface initially, and periodically while working.

What is the proper sequence for reconnecting the network cable?

Connect the cable first to the network wall jack, then plug it into your computer.

How do I re-enable the chassis intrusion detection after servicing?

Change the Chassis Intrusion setting in the BIOS/setup menu back to 'Enabled' or 'Enabled-Silent'.
