Precautionary Measures
Before you remove the computer cover, perform the following steps in the
sequence indicated.
Turn off your computer and any devices.
1
Disconnect your computer and devices from their power sources. Also,
disconnect any telephone or network lines from the computer.
Doing so reduces the potential for personal injury or shock.
If you are disconnecting a device from the computer or are removing a
2
component from the system board, wait 10 to 20 seconds after
disconnecting the computer from AC power before disconnecting the
device or removing the component to avoid possible damage to the
system board.
Wear a wrist grounding strap, and clip it to an unpainted metal
3
surface, such as the padlock loop on the back of the chassis. If a wrist
grounding strap is not available, touch any unpainted metal surface on
the back of the computer or on the computer chassis, such as the
power supply, to discharge any static charge from your body before
touching anything inside the computer. While you work, periodically
touch an unpainted metal surface on the computer chassis to dissipate
any static electricity that might harm internal components. Also avoid
touching components or contacts on a card and avoid touching pins on
a chip.
Verify that the standby power light on the system board is not on. If it
4
is on, you may need to wait 10 to 30 seconds for it to go out.
