Notes
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 EEPROM 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. Do not power off the computer when restoring the VPD. The system unit serial number label is attached to the base cover.
Before removing and replacing the system board, make sure the PCMCIA cards are removed and the eject levers are not extended.
Do not pull the PCMCIA slot assembly while removing the system board.
When handling the PCMCIA slot assembly, be careful not to disassemble any part of it. The slot assembly is not solidly fixed when it is removed from the system board or the FRU.
