Installing A Floppy Drive - Dell DIMENSION 5100 User Manual

Installing a Floppy Drive

NOTE:
In the event the replacement or new floppy drive does not have the shoulder screws, use the
screws located within the drive panel insert.
1 Follow the procedures in "Before You Begin" on page 53.
2 Remove the drive panel (see page 77).
3 Gently slide the drive into place until you feel a click or feel the drive securely installed.
NOTE: If you are installing a new floppy drive rather than replacing a drive, remove the drive
panel insert where you want the drive to be installed, insert the shoulder screws located in the
back of the drive panel insert into the drive, and then slide the drive back into place.
4 Attach the power and data cables to the floppy drive.
5 Connect the other end of the data cable to the connector labeled "DSKT2" on the system
board (see page 62) and route the cable through the clip on the shroud.
