Internal Design

The motherboard PCA is the central component of the Omnibook’s design. It plays a role in virtually all system functions. The CPU module and most other subsystems connect to the motherboard.

The following figure shows the connections among the Omnibook’s replaceable electronic modules. In addition, the table on page 1-15 lists the roles that the replaceable modules play in each of the Omnibook’s functional subsystems.

Caution

Always provide proper grounding when performing repairs. Without proper grounding, an electrostatic discharge can damage the Omnibook and its components.

Notes

Reassembly steps are the reverse of the removal steps. Reassembly notes are included at the end of each section below.

Symbols like this throughout this chapter show approximate full-size screw outlines. You can

use these to verify the sizes of screws before you install them. Installing a wrong-size screw can

damage the unit. (The symbol at the left represents an M2.5×5mm T-head screw.)

Required Equipment

• None.

Removal Procedure

1. Press the button on the module release latch, and slide the latch toward the front of the computer.

Figure 2-3. Removing a Module

2. Grasp the module and pull it out.

Figure 2-4. Removing a Module

Removing an SDRAM Module

(User-Replaceable)

The computer has no SDRAM on its motherboard, but has two slots for that hold two SDRAM modules. One slot contains a SDRAM module installed at the factory.

Caution

Handle the SDRAM module only by its edges and provide proper grounding, or you might damage the board by electrostatic discharge.

Required Equipment

• Small Phillips screwdriver.

Removal Procedure

1. Unplug the AC adapter, if present, and remove the battery. Remove the secondary battery if one is

installed.

2. Turn the unit bottom-side up, loosen the one or two screws holding the SDRAM cover (the cover

may retain the screws), and remove the cover.

3. Release the two latches at the sides of the SDRAM module, so the free edge of the board pops up.

4. Pull the board out of the connector.

Figure 2-5. Removing a SDRAM Module

Reassembly Notes

• Gently press the SDRAM module into the connector at about a 30° angle, until it is fully inserted.

Then press down on both sides until the latches snap closed.

Removing the Hard Disk Drive

(User-Replaceable)

Required Equipment

• Small Phillips screwdriver.

Removal Procedure

1. Unplug the AC adapter, if present, and remove the battery. Remove the secondary battery if one is

installed.

2. Turn the unit bottom side up and remove all hard drive screws.

3. Raise the cover on the end of the drive so that its retainer tab is free of the computer casing, then

gently pull the hard drive out of the computer.

4. Remove all screws from the holder and drive case, then lift the drive out of the holder.

5. Notice that the hard drive has a pin connector attachment at one end. Carefully remove this
