• Avoid rough handling of any kind.
• At every point in the process, be sure not to drop or stack the system board.
• If you put a system board down, be sure to put it only on a padded surface such as an ESD mat or a corrugated
conductive surface.
If your computer supports PC-Doctor for DOS, after replacing the system board, run PC-Doctor for DOS to make sure
that the HDD Active Protection System still functions. The procedure is as follows:
1. Place the computer on a horizontal surface.
2. Run Diagnostics ➙ ThinkPad Devices ➙ HDD Active Protection Test.
Attention: Do not apply physical shock to the computer while the test is running.
