Replacing the System Board

Dimension™ 8200 System Board Types

This computer supports two types of system boards—a one-piece system board and a two-piece, riser system board. The one-piece system board contains all four PCI slots. The two-piece, riser system board uses a riser extension that contains card slots PCI3 and PCI4. The riser extension attaches to the riser system board at the brown RISER connector on the riser extension. Both types of system boards perform identically and are removed and reinstalled the same way into the computer.
