This guide contains instructions for installing and or replacing the following parts:

vBattery

vPower supply

vHeat sink

vHard disk drive

vOptical drive

vDiskette drive

vMemory modules

vPCI adapter

vSystem fan assembly

vRear fan assembly

vKeyboard

Handling static-sensitive devices

Do not open the static-protective package containing the new part until the defective part has been removed from the computer and you are ready to install the new part. Static electricity, although harmless to you, can seriously damage computer components and parts.

When you handle parts and other computer components, take these precautions to avoid static-electricity damage:

vLimit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.

vAlways handle parts and other computer components carefully. Handle adapters, memory modules, system boards, and microprocessors by the edges. Never touch any exposed circuitry.

vPrevent others from touching the parts and other computer components.

vBefore you replace a new part, touch the static-protective package containing the part to a metal expansion-slot cover or other unpainted metal surface on the computer for at least two seconds. This reduces static electricity in the package and your body.

vWhen possible, remove the new part from the static-protective packaging, and install it directly in the computer without setting the part down. When this is not possible, place the static-protective package that the part came in on a smooth, level surface and place the part on it.

vDo not place the part on the computer cover or other metal surface.

Connector	Description
USB connectors	Used to attach a device that requires a Universal Serial Bus
	(USB) connection, such as a USB keyboard, USB mouse, USB
	scanner or USB printer. If you have more than eight USB
	devices, you can purchase a USB hub, which you can use to
	connect additional USB devices.
Ethernet connector	Used to attach an Ethernet cable for a local area network
	(LAN).
	Note: To operate the computer within FCC Class B limits, use
	a Category 5 Ethernet cable.
Serial connector	Used to attach an external modem, serial printer, or other
	devices that use a 9-pin serial connector.
Audio line-in connector	Used to receive audio signals from an external audio device,
	such as a stereo system. When you attach an external audio
	device, a cable is connected between the audio line-out
	connector of the device and the audio line-in connector of the
	computer.
Audio line-out connector	Used to send audio signals from the computer to external
	devices, such as powered stereo speakers (speakers with
	built-in amplifiers), headphones, multimedia keyboards, or the
	audio line-in connector on a stereo system or other external
	recording device.
