This Service Guide provides you with all technical information relating to the BASIC CONFIGURATION decided for Acer's "global" product offering. To better fit local market requirements and enhance product competitiveness, your regional office MAY have decided to extend the functionality of a machine (e.g. add-on card, modem, or extra memory capability). These LOCALIZED FEATURES will NOT be covered in this generic service guide. In such cases, please contact your regional offices or the responsible personnel/channel to provide you with further technical details. 2. Please note WHEN ORDERING FRU PARTS, that you should check the most up-to-date information available on your regional web or channel. If, for whatever reason, a part number change is made, it will not be noted in the printed Service Guide. For ACER-AUTHORIZED SERVICE PROVIDERS, your Acer office may have a DIFFERENT part number code to those given in the FRU list of this printed Service Guide. You MUST use the list provided by your regional Acer office to order FRU parts for repair and service of customer machines. 5 6 Table of Contents Chapter 1 System Specifications 1 Overview . 1 Features . 2 Outlook . 3 Main Board Layout . 9 Hardware Specifications and Configurations . 10 Power Management Function (ACPI support function) . 18 BIOS Setup Utility . 19 Chapter 2 System Utilities 19 Navigating the BIOS Utility . 20 Info. 21 Main . 22 System Devices . 24 Security . 25 Boot . 28 Exit . 29 Chapter 3 Machine Disassembly and Replacement 31 General Information . 32 Before You Begin . 32 Disassembly Procedure Flowchart . 33 Disassembling . 36 Remove the battery . 36 Remove the HDD module . 36 Remove the combo drive . 36 Remove the thermal module . 37 Remove CPU . 37 Remove the memory . 37 Remove VGA card . 37 Detach the wireless card . 38 Remove moden card . 38 Remove the inverter cover . 38 Detach the upper system cover . 39 Remove the LCD module . 39 Remove the LCD panel . 40 Remove the inverter board . 40 Remove the mylars . 42 Remove the wireless module . 42 Remove the side bracket 42 Remove the LED cable attached on the LCD outer shield. 43 Remove the subwoofer . 43 Release the MDC cable. 44 Disconnect the cable to the modem header. 44 Remove the keyboard . 44 Remove the LED board . 44 Detach the front panel . 45 Remove the Audio DJ board . 45 Remove the touch pad . 46 Remove the touch pad board . 47 Remove the lid switch cable . 47 Remove the floppy drive . 47 Remove the speaker set . 48 Remove the mainboard . 48 VII Table of Contents Remove the system fan . 49 FDD Module . 50 HDD Module . 50 Combo Module . 51 General Information . 54 Before You Begin . 54 Re-assembly 55 Place the system fan . 55 Re-assembling the mainboard . 55 Place the speaker set back to position . 56 Place the floppy module back to position . 57 Place the touch pad back to position . 57 Reconnect the Audio DJ board . 58 Place the system cover back to position . 58 Reconnect the LED cable . 59 Place the keyboard back to position . 59 Place the MDC cable back to position . 60 Reconnect the sub-woofer . 60 Place the LED cable back to position . ..
