2: Disassembly
Overview
This chapter provides step-by-step instructions for disassembling the D900T series notebook's parts and subsystems. When it comes to reassembly, reverse the procedures (unless otherwise indicated). We suggest you completely review any procedure before you take the computer apart. Procedures such as upgrading/replacing the RAM, CD device and hard disk are included in the User's Manual but are repeated here for your convenience. To make the disassembly process easier each section may have a box in the page margin. Information contained under the figure # will give a synopsis of the sequence of procedures involved in the disassembly procedure. A box with a lists the relevant parts you will have after the disassembly process is complete. Note: The parts listed will be for the disassembly procedure listed ONLY, and not any previous disassembly step(s) required. Refer to the part list for the previous disassembly procedure. The amount of screws you should be left with will be listed here also. A box with a will provide any possible helpful information. A box with a contains warnings.

Information

An example of these types of boxes are shown in the sidebar.

Overview 2 - 1

Disassembly NOTE: All disassembly procedures assume that the system is turned OFF, and disconnected from any power supply (the battery is removed too).

Maintenance Tools
The following tools are recommended when working on the notebook PC:
· · · · · · · M3 Philips-head screwdriver M2.5 Philips-head screwdriver (magnetized) M2 Philips-head screwdriver Small flat-head screwdriver Pair of needle-nose pliers Vacuum Handling Tool (for CPU removal) Anti-static wrist-strap

2.Disassembly

Connections
Connections within the computer are one of four types:
Locking collar sockets for ribbon connectors To release these connectors, use a small flat-head screwdriver to gently pry the locking collar away from its base. When replacing the connection, make sure the connector is oriented in the same way. The pin1 side is usually not indicated. To release this connector type, grasp it at its head and gently rock it from side to side as you pull it out. Do not pull on the wires themselves. When replacing the connection, do not try to force it. The socket only fits one way. To release these connectors, use a small pair of needle-nose pliers to gently lift the connector away from its socket. When replacing the connection, make sure the connector is oriented in the same way. The pin1 side is usually not indicated. To separate the boards, gently rock them from side to side as you pull them apart. If the connection is very tight, use a small flat-head screwdriver - use just enough force to start.

Maintenance Precautions
The following precautions are a reminder. To avoid personal injury or damage to the computer while performing a removal and/or replacement job, take the following precautions:
1. Don't drop it. Perform your repairs and/or upgrades on a stable surface. If the computer falls, the case and other components could be damaged. 2. Don't overheat it. Note the proximity of any heating elements. Keep the computer out of direct sunlight. 3. Avoid interference. Note the proximity of any high capacity transformers, electric motors, and other strong magnetic fields. These can hinder proper performance and damage components and/or data. You should also monitor the position of magnetized tools (i.e. screwdrivers). 4. Keep it dry. This is an electrical appliance. If water or any other liquid gets into it, the computer could be badly damaged. 5. Be careful with power. Avoid accidental shocks, discharges or explosions. · Before removing or servicing any part from the computer, turn the computer off and detach any power supplies. · When you want to unplug the power cord or any cable/wire, be sure to disconnect it by the plug head. Do not pull on the wire. 6. Peripherals Turn off and detach any peripherals. 7. Beware of static discharge. ICs, such as the CPU and main support chips, are vulnerable to static electricity. Before handling any part in the computer, discharge any static electricity inside the computer. When handling a printed circuit board, do not use gloves or other materials which allow static electricity buildup. We suggest that you use an anti-static wrist strap instead. 8. Beware of corrosion. As you perform your job, avoid touching any connector leads. Even the cleanest hands produce oils which can attract corrosive elements. 9. Keep your work environment clean. Tobacco smoke, dust or other air-born particulate matter is often attracted to charged surfaces, reducing performance. 10. Keep track of the components. When removing or replacing any part, be careful not to leave small parts, such as screws, loose inside the computer.
Power Safety Warning Before you undertake any upgrade procedures, make sure that you have turned off the power, and disconnected all peripherals and cables (including telephone lines). It is advisable to also remove your battery in order to prevent accidentally turning the machine on.

Cleaning
Do not apply cleaner directly to the computer, use a soft clean cloth. Do not use volatile (petroleum distillates) or abrasive cleaners on any part of the computer.

Removing the Hard Disk Drive
HDD System Warning
New HDD's are blank. Before you begin make sure: You have backed up any data you want to keep from your old HDD. You have all the CDROMs and FDDs required to install your operating system and programs. If you have access to the internet, download the latest application and hardware driver updates for the operating system you plan to install. Copy these to a removable medium.

The hard disk drive is mounted in a removable case and can be taken out to accommodate other 2.5" IDE hard disk drives with a height of 9.5mm (h). Follow your operating system's installation instructions, and install all necessary drivers and utilities (as outlined in Chapter 5 of the User's Manual) when setting up a new hard disk.
1. 2. 3. 4. Turn off the computer, remove the battery (page 2 - 5) and turn it over. Remove screws 1 - 4 from the hard disk bay cover. Remove the hard disk bay cover 5 . Remove screws 6 - 9 from the hard disk bracket a.
Jumper Settings for Two Hard Disks When using two hard disks in your computer, make sure to set the jumper on the slave hard disk to the cable select option in order for the system to recognize the disks (see your hard disk manual or the information printed on the hard disk itself for details on the jumper settings). The slave disk will automatically be in the upper slot of the hard disk case, the master will be in the lower slot (as defined by the hard disk cable). Configure the RAID according to the instructions in Chapter 8 of the User's Manual.

5. 6. 7. 8. The RAM module 8 will pop-up, and you can remove it. Pull the latches to release the other modules if necessary. Insert a new module holding it at about a 30° angle and fit the connectors firmly into the memory slot. The module's pin alignment will allow it to only fit one way. Make sure the module is seated as far into the slot as it will go. DO NOT FORCE the module; it should fit without much pressure. 9. Press the module in and down towards the mainboard until the slot levers click into place to secure the module. 10. Replace the memory socket cover and the 4 screws (see Figure 2 - 4). 11. Restart the computer to allow the BIOS will register the new memory configuration as it starts up.

Re-Insering a CPU When re-inserting the CPU make sure you use the vacuum handling tool to lift it up, and to place in the socket. Place the CPU in the socket carefully and line up the indents on the side of the CPU with the appropriate postions on the socket. The CPU's pin alignment and indents will allow it to only fit one way. Make sure the CPU is seated as far into the slot as it will go. DO NOT FORCE the CPU; it should fit without much pressure.
