Attention Keep cables 1 through 3 clear of the hinges and sides of the computer chassis. 3. Make sure that the drive locks on the drive bay assembly are both in the locked position. Otherwise, you cannot close the cover. 4.
Important Start the IBM Setup Utility program to view your system information. See “Starting the IBM Setup Utility” in your Quick Reference. If the serial number and the machine type/model listed on the Main menu do not match what is printed on the label of your computer, you must update (flash) the BIOS to change the serial number and the machine type/model.
