Completing the parts replacement
After completing the installation or replacement for all parts, you need to reinstall the computer cover and
reconnect cables. Depending on the parts you installed or replaced, you might need to confirm the updated
information in the Setup Utility program. Refer to "Using the Setup Utility program" on page 61.
To reinstall the computer cover and reconnect cables to your computer, do the following:
1. Ensure that all components have been reassembled correctly and that no tools or loose screws are left
inside your computer. See "Locating components" on page 31 for the locations of various components
in your computer.
2. Ensure that the cables are routed correctly before reinstalling the computer cover. Keep cables clear of
the hinges and sides of the computer chassis to avoid interference with reinstalling the computer cover.
3. Lower the drive bay assembly. See "Accessing the system board components and drives" on page 104.
4. If you have removed the front bezel, reinstall it. To reinstall the front bezel, align the three tabs on
the front bezel with the corresponding holes in the chassis and pivot the front bezel inwards until
it snaps into position.
