TROUBLESHOOTING
Listed below are some of the considerations that you should keep in mind during the
disassembly and assembly of the computer:

Tool Requirements

To service the computer, you need the following:
Magnetic Torx T-8 screwdriver (for all screws unless otherwise specified)
9/32-inch socket for bushing guides
Screws
The screws used in the computer are not interchangeable. If an incorrect screw is used during
the reassembly process, it can damage the unit. Compaq strongly recommends that all screws
removed during disassembly be kept with the part that was removed, then returned to their
proper locations.

Plastic Parts

Using excessive force during disassembly and reassembly can damage plastic parts. Use care
when handling the plastic parts. Apply pressure only at the points designated in these
maintenance instructions.
As each subassembly is removed from the computer, it should be placed away
IMPORTANT:
from the work area to prevent damage.
