 PC Card Cage Removal


Figure 36. PC Card Cage Components

 

This procedure assumes that you have removed the

system board

from the plastic case. To remove the PC Card cage (see Figure 36), perform

the following steps:

1. Remove the 4-mm screw securing the audio bezel.

2. Remove the audio bezel.

3. Remove the four 18-mm screws securing the PC Card cage to the system board.

Use a support for the system board to prevent the board from flexing when the card cage screws are removed.

4. Gently pull the card cage off of connector UP9 on the system board. Do not rock the cage to remove it, because this may damage the

connectors.

Replace the PC Card cage if it is damaged.
