Chapter 3

Accessing Internal Components

To reach your computer’s internal components, you need to remove the cover. In some cases, you may also need to remove the front panel and the subassembly (the metal case that holds the drive bays and the power supply). The instructions in this chapter explain how to do these tasks:

Q Remove and replace the cover

0 Remove and replace the subassembly.

Be sure to heed all the cautions and warnings so you do not injure yourself or damage the computer. If you have any reservations about performing these steps yourself, ask your Epson dealer for assistance.

Note

You only remove the subassembly to access the math coprocessor or SIMM sockets, or to install or remove a disk drive. You do not need to remove it to install or remove an option card.
