System Board (Service Only Procedure)
CAUTION: Only trained service technicians are authorized to remove the system
cover and access any of the components inside the system. Before performing any
procedure, see your Product Information Guide for complete information about
safety precautions, working inside the system and protecting against electrostatic
discharge.
CAUTION: The heat sink can get hot during operation. To avoid burns, ensure that
the system has sufficient time to cool before removing the system board.

replace the system board, you must supply the recovery key when you restart your
system or program before you can access the encrypted data on your hard drive(s).
