Chapter 4. Completing the parts replacement
After working with parts, you need to replace the computer cover and reconnect
any cables, including telephone lines and power cords. Also, depending on the
part that was replaced, you might need to confirm the updated information in the
Setup Utility program.
This section provides instructions on how to complete the parts replacement.
1. Ensure that all components have been reassembled correctly and that no tools
or loose screws are left inside your computer.
2. Reposition any cables that might impede the replacement of the computer
cover.
Important
Correctly route all power supply cables to avoid interference with the
drive bay assembly. Keep cables clear of the hinges and sides of the
computer chassis.
3. If the drive bay assembly was removed, align it with the two slots and rails on
the sides of the chassis and reconnect the drive cables to the system board.
4. Slide the drive bay assembly towards the rear of the chassis until it snaps into
position.
5. Reinstall the front bezel if it was removed.
6. Position the computer cover on the chassis so that the rail guides on the sides
of the cover engage the rails and push the cover to the closed position until it
snaps into position. If your computer has screws to secure the computer cover,
install the screws.
7. Install any locking devices such as a padlock as necessary.
8. Reconnect the external cables and power cords to the computer. See “Locating
connectors on the rear of your computer” on page 5.
9. To update the configuration, see “Using the Setup Utility” in the User Guide that
was included with your computer.
