vDo not drop a system board or apply any excessive force to it.

vAvoid rough handling of any kind.

vAvoid bending a system board and hard pushing to prevent cracking at each BGA (Ball Grid Array) chipset.

How to use error message

Use the error codes displayed on the screen to diagnose failures. If more than one error code is displayed, begin the diagnosis with the first error code. Whatever causes the first error code may also cause false error codes. If no error code is displayed, see whether the error symptom is listed in the Symptom-to-FRU Index for the computer you are servicing.
