Upgrading and Servicing Guide

Safety Information

This product has not been evaluated for connection to an “IT” power system (an AC

distribution system with no direct connection to the earth, according to IEC 60950).

The Upgrading and Servicing Guide provides instructions on how to remove and replace

hardware components of your PC.

Opening and Closing the PC

WARNING: Please read “Safety Information” in the Warranty and Support

Guide before installing and connecting your system to the electrical power

system.

2Upgrading and Servicing Guide

Preparing the PC

Before you upgrade any component in your PC, you need to prepare the PC so that you

can safely handle it and the components.

Read the following items before attempting to upgrade or service the PC:

1These procedures assume familiarity with the general terminology associated with

personal computers and with the safety practices and regulatory compliance required

for using and modifying electronic equipment.

2Write down and save the system model and serial numbers, all installed options, and

other information about the system. It’s easier to consult this information than to open

and examine the PC.

3It is recommended that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive foam pad

when working on the system.

Before Opening the PC

To avoid injury and equipment damage, always follow this procedure in this order before

opening the PC:

1Remove any diskette or optical disc (CD or DVD) from the PC.

2Click the Windows Start Button®, and then click Shut Down.

3Disconnect the modem/telephone cable, if present.

4Disconnect the power cord from the electrical outlet and then from the PC.

5Disconnect all other attached cables (such as the keyboard, mouse, and monitor).

6Disconnect all external devices.

WARNING: Always disconnect the modem cord from the telephone system,

and then disconnect the PC from the power source before removing the front

and side panels of the PC. Failure to do so before you open the PC or do any

procedures can result in personal injury or equipment damage.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of personal injury from electrical shock or hot

surfaces, disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet, and allow the

internal system components to cool before touching.

CAUTION: Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the PC or

optional equipment. Ensure that you are discharged of static electricity by

briefly touching a grounded metal object.

Upgrading and Servicing Guide 3

After Closing the PC

To avoid injury and equipment damage, always follow this procedure in this order after

closing the PC:

1Reconnect the power cord.

2Reconnect the modem/telephone cable and all other cables (such as the keyboard,

mouse, and monitor).

3Reconnect external devices.

4Turn on the PC and all peripherals such as the monitor.

5If you installed an add-in card, install any software drivers supplied by the card

manufacturer.

Removing the Side Panel

1See “Before Opening the PC” on page 2.

2Loosen the thumbscrew (A) that secures the side panel to the PC chassis. You may

need to use a screwdriver the first time you loosen the screw.

3Use the handle to pull and slide the panel back about 1 inch (2.5 centimeters), and

then lift it off the chassis.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to the

equipment, do not plug telecommunications or telephone connectors into the

network interface card (NIC) (labeled as an Ethernet connector).

WARNING: Beware of sharp edges inside the chassis.

4Upgrading and Servicing Guide

Replacing the Side Panel

1Align the tabs at the bottom of the side panel to the ridge on the bottom of the chassis.

Place the side panel in the proper position on the chassis and slide it toward the front

of the chassis.

2Ensure that the hole for the thumbscrew aligns with the hole in the chassis, and then

replace the thumbscrew (A).

3See “After Closing the PC” on page 3.

NOTE: There is a 3mm gap between the top of the side panel and the top of the

chassis when the side panel is attached properly.

Upgrading and Servicing Guide 5

Removing the Front Panel

This procedure is necessary only when removing or replacing an optical drive, memory

card reader, an HP Pocket Media Drive, diskette drive, or the hard disk drive.

1Pull the three tabs (B) away from the outside edge of the chassis.

2Swing the front panel away from the chassis toward the left to remove it.

6Upgrading and Servicing Guide

Replacing the Front Panel

1Align and insert the three hooks on the left side of the front panel with the holes on the

left side of the chassis.

2Swing the front panel around and press the three hooks on the right side of the front

panel into the three holes on the right side of the chassis until the panel snaps into

place.
