General Information
Pre-disassembly Instructions
Before proceeding with the disassembly procedure, make sure that you do the following:
1. Turn off the power to the system and all peripherals.
2. Unplug the AC adapter and all power and signal cables from the system.
Disassembly Process
The disassembly process is divided into the following sections:
Upper cover disassembly

After using OpenOffice what happens to my old MS Office format files? Do I need to
recreate the files? Is there a conversion utility?
OpenOffice can not only read MS Office format files, but also save files as MS Office 95/97/2000/XP format so
there is no need to recreate the old files. In fact, for older file formats, OpenOffice performs excellently, even
with MS Office 95 documents.
NOTE: If your documents contain complex page layouts or macros you may wish to consider recreating them
using OpenOffice.
In addition, OpenOffice provides a file conversion wizard able to convert original MS Office file formats to
OpenOffice format.
