Figure 5-62 Seating the processor System board This section describes removing and installing the system board. Removing the system board To remove the system board: 1. Disconnect power from the system (Predisassembly procedures on page 57) and remove the side access panel (Removing the side access panel on page 61). NOTE: Although the processor heatsink can remain in place, you might want to remove it for convenience. 2. Remove all expansion boards and graphics cards (Removing a PCI Express card on page 78, Removing a PCI card on page 80), and then remove the processor heatsink (Removing the processor heatsink on page 101). TIP: Make a note of the cable connections before disconnecting them from the system board. For more information, refer to Power connections to drives on page 86 . 3. Disconnect all cabling from the system board. ENWW Removing and replacing components 105
