    9. Remove the memory modules.
    Carefully spread the inner metal tabs of the memory module socket to dis-
    engage the module from the socket. The module should pop up slightly. 
    Then pull the memory module out of the socket (see Figure 4-9).

    10. Remove the video card.
    Remove the two 3-mm screws securing the video card (see Figure 4-10). 
    Gently pull the video card off of the connectors on the bottom of the sys-
    tem board by lifting it at the notches located between the screws. Do not 
    rock the card to remove it because this may damage the connectors.

    11. If present, remove the combo module or secondary battery from the 
    options bay.
    Unlock the latch lock by flipping it toward the back of the computer (see 
    Figure 4-11). Slide the latch release in the direction of the arrow. Keep hold-
    ing the latch release with one hand while pulling the combo module or 
    secondary battery straight out of the options bay with the other.

    NOTE: If the computer is booted with a diskette drive or secondary battery 
    in the options bay, you must reboot after installing the combo module in 
    the options bay.

    Some of the computer’s interface connectors are zero insertion force (ZIF) 
    connectors. These connectors are not removable; they must be released to 
    disconnect a cable from them.
    To disconnect a cable from a ZIF connector, follow these steps: 
    1. Insert a small flat-blade screwdriver or dental pick under the movable part 
    of the connector (see Figure 4-12).
    For most ZIFs, carefully pry up first one end of the movable part of the con-
    nector and then the other end. Some ZIFs may need to be lifted in the 
    center.

    2. Pull up gently on the movable part of the connector until the cable is 
    released.
    3. Grasp the cable and pull it out of the connector.
    To reconnect an interface cable to a ZIF connector, follow these steps: 
    1. Use the flat-blade screwdriver or dental pick to open the movable part of 
    the ZIF connector.
    2. Orient the end of the cable with the ZIF connector, and insert the end of 
    the cable into the connector.
    3. While holding the cable in place, close the ZIF connector.
    To ensure a firm connection, make sure that the ZIF connector is completely 
    closed.

    This section contains a parts list and procedures for removing and replacing 
    factory components and subassemblies. This information is provided for refer-
    ence only. Dell does not recommend removal and replacement of these parts 
    in the field. 
    Table 4-1 lists the factory repair parts and assemblies available for the com-
    puter. Some parts may only be available as part of a kit or assembly. The 
    subsections in this chapter provide instructions for removing and replacing 
    these parts and assemblies. Customer kits are those parts or assemblies that 
    are replaceable by a customer.
