1080 System Board Assembly

Notes:
1. The system unit serial number must be restored when the system board is replaced. To restore the system unit serial number, select the option ¿Set system identification— on the maintenance diskette. The flash ROM on the system board contains the vital product data (VPD)¬that is, the system unit serial number, system board system number, and other computer-unique data.
2. Do not power off the computer when restoring the VPD. The system unit serial number label is attached to the base cover.
3. Before removing and replacing the system board assembly, make sure that the PCMCIA cards are removed and the eject levers are not sticking out.
