Notes:
• If you need to disconnect cables from the system board assembly, disengage all latches or
release tabs on cable connectors first. Failing to release the tab before removing the cables will
damage the cable sockets on the system board assembly. Any damage to the cable sockets
might require replacing the system board assembly.
• The connectors on your system board assembly might look different from those in the
illustration, but the removal procedure is the same.
1. Press the release tab to release the connector.
2. Disengage the connector from the cable socket.
