The computer ships with the Smart Cover Lock in the unlocked position. For more information about locking the Smart Cover Lock, refer to the Desktop Management guide.
Hardware Upgrades To open the computer cover: 1. Turn off the computer and any external devices. Removing the Smart Cover Lock Screws 2. Remove the Smart Cover Lock. To reattach the Smart Cover Lock, secure the lock in place with the tamper-proof screws.
Hardware Upgrades Removing the Computer Access Panel and Front Bezel To remove the computer access panel: 1. If you have locked the Smart Cover Lock, use Computer Setup to unlock the lock. 2. Turn off the computer properly through the operating system, then turn off any external devices. 3. Disconnect the power cord from the power outlet and the computer, and disconnect any external devices.
Hardware Upgrades 6. To remove the front bezel, gently pull up all three tabs 1 on the top of the bezel, then pull the bezel 2 away from the chassis. Removing the Front Bezel To reassemble the computer, reverse the above procedure. Press down while replacing the access panel. Refer to the label on the inside of the access panel for more information. To re-install the front bezel, insert the two bezel bottom tabs, then rotate the front bezel forward to snap the three tabs on the top of the bezel in place.
Hardware Upgrades Installing Additional Memory The computer comes with double data rate synchronous dynamic random access memory (DDR-SDRAM) dual inline memory modules (DIMMs). DIMMs The memory sockets on the system board can be populated with up to four industrystandard DIMMs. These memory sockets are populated with at least one preinstalled DIMM. To achieve the maximum memory support, you can populate the system board with up to 4GB of memory configured in a high-performing dual channel mode.
Hardware Upgrades The following processor bus frequencies are required for the system to run at the supported memory frequencies. Memory Frequency Required Processor Bus Frequency 266 MHz 400 MHz, 533 MHz, or 800 MHz 333 MHz 533 MHz or 800 MHz 400 MHz 800 MHz If a memory frequency is paired with an unsupported processor bus frequency, the system will run at the highest supported memory speed.
Hardware Upgrades There are four DIMM sockets on the system board, with two sockets per channel. The sockets are labeled XMM1, XMM2, XMM3, and XMM4. Sockets XMM1 and XMM2 operate in memory channel A. Sockets XMM3 and XMM4 operate in memory channel B.
Hardware Upgrades Installing DDR-SDRAM DIMMs CAUTION: The memory module sockets have gold metal contacts. When upgrading the memory, it is important to use memory modules with gold metal contacts to prevent corrosion and/or oxidation resulting from having incompatible metals in contact with each other. CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer or optional cards.
Hardware Upgrades 5. Rotate the Easy Access drive bay to an upright position. Rotating the Easy Access Drive Bay 6. Locate the memory module sockets. WARNING: To reduce risk of personal injury from hot surfaces, allow the internal system components to cool before touching.
Hardware Upgrades 7. Open both latches of the memory module socket 1, then insert the memory module into the socket 2. Installing a DIMM A memory module can be installed in only one way. Match the notch on the module with the tab on the memory socket. If you have one preinstalled DIMM in socket XMM1 and are adding a second DIMM, it is recommended that you install an identical DIMM into the XMM3 socket. If you are populating all four DIMM sockets, use identical DIMMs in each socket.
Hardware Upgrades 9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for any additional modules that you want to install. 10. Return the Easy Access drive bay to the down position.

F Electrostatic Discharge A discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor may damage system boards or other static-sensitive devices. This type of damage may reduce the life expectancy of the device. Preventing Electrostatic Damage To prevent electrostatic damage, observe the following precautions: Avoid hand contact by transporting and storing products in static-safe containers. Keep electrostatic-sensitive parts in their containers until they arrive at static-free workstations.
Electrostatic Discharge Use heel straps, toes straps, or bootstraps at standing workstations. Wear the straps on both feet when standing on conductive floors or dissipating floor mats. Use conductive field service tools. Use a portable field service kit with a folding static-disipating work mat. If you do not have any of the suggested equipment for proper grounding, contact an HP authorized dealer, reseller, or service provider.
G Routine Computer Care and Shipping Preparation Routine Computer Care Follow these suggestions to take care of the computer and monitor: Operate the computer on a study, level surface. Leave a 3-inch (7.6-cm) clearance at the back of the system unit and above the monitor to permit the required airflow. Never operate the computer with the cover or side panel removed. Never restrict the airflow into the computer by blcoking the front vents or airtake.
Routine Computer Care and Shipping Preparation Optical Drive Precautions Be sure to observe the following guidelines while operating or cleaning the optical drive. Operation Do not move the drive during operation. This may cause it to malfunction during reading. Avoid exposing the drive to sudden changes in temperature, as condensation amy from inside the unit. If the temperature suddenly changes while the drive is on, wait at least one hour before you turn off the power.
Routine Computer Care and Shipping Preparation Shipping Preparation Follow these suggestions when preparing to ship the computer: 1. Back up the hard drive files on PD discs, tape cartridges, CDs, or diskettes. Be sure that the backup media is not exposed to electrical or magnetic impulses while stored or in transit. The hard drive locks automatically when the system power is turned off. 2. Remove and store any program diskettes from the diskette drives. 3.
