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.

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.
