Opening the Computer Cabinet
Warning! Prevent static electric damage. Avoid touching any
electronic components. Static discharge can cause severe damage to
electronic equipment, but here are some easy ways to see that it doesn't
happen:
Don't touch edge connectors or exposed circuitry.
If possible, ground your body. A metal power supply in your
computer is generally considered the best place to ground
yourself.
Make as few movements as possible to avoid building up static
electricity from your clothing, carpets and furniture.
1. Switch off your computer and all external options (printer, display,
and others) and unplug all power cables from the electrical source.
Physically remove the power cable from the system and wait 15-30
seconds for Flea Power to dissipate. Damage can occur to add-in
components if power is not physically disconnected from the
system during installation procedures.
2. Remove the cover of the computer. Refer to the instructions in your
computer's manual for more information.
