Removal and Replacement Procedures

This chapter provides subassembly/module-level removal and replacement procedures for the
Compaq Professional Workstation AP200.
After completing all necessary removal and replacement procedures, run the Compaq Setup
and Diagnostics program to verify that all components are operating properly.

Serial Number

Provide the computer serial number to Compaq whenever you request information or order
spare parts. The serial number is located on the top corner of the workstation
the rear of the chassis
For asset control, the serial number is also embedded in the EPROM on the system board. If
the system board is replaced with a spare part from Compaq, an invalid serial number
condition will be reported during POST. To clear the condition, reenter the original serial
number through Computer Setup.
NOTE: If a system board from another workstation is installed, POST recognizes the serial
number as a valid number.
