Disconnecting the Existing 3D Effects Board
To remove the existing 3D effects board (Genie), you need to disconnect
the over-the-top connector that connects the two boards — the Genie and
the Meridien II or Meridien III board set (see Figure 1).
To disconnect the board sets in one of two ways:
t The preferred method is to grasp the over-the-top connector on both
sides with your fingers and loosen it. Remove it when it is loose (see
Figure 1).
c
Do not attempt to remove the over-the-top connector by prying it off
from the end. This can damage the pins on both board sets.
Figure 1 Removing the Over-the-Top Connector
n
Figure 1 shows the over-the-top connector connected to a different 3D
effects board. Removal is the same.
t The second method is to gently rock the board sets up and down until
the over-the-top connector becomes loose, and then remove it.
n
You should now remove the old 3D effects board (Genie) and place it on a
static-free location.
Connecting the New Meridien 3D Effects Board
You need to connect the Meridien II or Meridien III board set to the new
Z6 board. It is easier to place the new Z6 board and the Meridien board
sets into the PCI slots separately, and then attach the over-the-top
connector.
