System information

Once the plastic is off the back of
the box its possible to undo the
two retainer screws and the
motherboard can be slid out of
the chassis. There is a wire pull
that flips down to form a handle
to draw out the board with.
Rattling it just a bit helps free the
board from the power socket.
Installing the new board is sim-
ply a matter of reversing the pro-
cedure. there are a pair of
grooves along the left and right
sides inside the CPU to guide the
board straight to the power sock-
et. The board has a row of con-
tacts along the front leading edge
that plugs into the slot connected
to the power supply socket deep
inside the chassis.

pictures on the next couple of
