Systems Service Manual

Overview

This section provides procedures for removing and replacing the components, assemblies, and subassemblies in the Dell OptiPlex low-profile

chassis GX200 system.

Unless otherwise noted, each procedure assumes that the following conditions exist:

lYou have performed the steps in "Precautionary Measures."

lYou have removed the computer cover.

lYou can replace or reinstall a part by performing the removal procedure in reverse order unless additional information is provided.

Recommended Tools

Most of the procedures in this file require the use of one or more of the following tools:

lSmall flat-blade screwdriver

lWide flat-blade screwdriver

l#1 and #2 Phillips-head screwdrivers

l1/4-inch nut driver

Also, use a wrist grounding strap as explained in "Precautionary Measures."

CAUTION: FOR YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY AND PROTECTION OF THE EQUIPMENT

Before you start to work on the system, perform the following steps in the sequence listed:

1. Turn off the computer and all peripherals.

2. Disconnect the computer and peripherals from their electrical outlets. Also, disconnect any telephone or telecommunication lines from

the computer. Doing so reduces the potential for personal injury or shock.

3. If you are disconnecting a peripheral from the computer or are removing a component from the system board, wait 10 to 20 seconds

after disconnecting the computer from the electrical outlet before disconnecting the peripheral or removing the component to avoid

Internal Views

possible damage to the system board.

4. Wear a wrist grounding strap, and clip it to an unpainted metal surface, such as the padlock loop on the back of the chassis. If a wrist

grounding strap is not available, touch any unpainted metal surface on the back of the computer or on the computer chassis, such as

thepowersupply,todischargeanystaticchargefromyourbodybeforetouchinganythinginsidethecomputer.Whileyouwork,

periodically touch an unpainted metal surface on the computer chassis to dissipate any static electricity that might harm internal

components. Also avoid touching components or contacts on a card and avoid touching pins on a chip.

5. Verify that the auxiliary power indicator on the riser board is not on. If it is on, you may need to wait 10 to 30 seconds for it to go out

(see Riser Boards).

Figure 11. Hard-Disk Drive to Bracket Installation

To install a replacement hard-disk drive,performthefollowingsteps.

NOTICE: To avoid damaging the drive by ESD, ground yourself by touching an unpainted metal surface on the back of the computer.

NOTICE: When you unpack the drive, do not set it on a hard surface, which may damage the drive. Instead, set the drive on a

surface, such as a foam pad, that will sufficiently cushion it.

1. Prepare the drive for installation.

Check the documentation for the drive to verify that it is configured for your computer system.

2. If not already done, remove the computer cover.

3. To install the hard-disk drive to the bracket, place the drive top-down on a flat surface with the bracket mounting holes facing up.

4. Position the bracket over the holes and install four screws to secure the bracket to the drive.

5. Insert the bracket's hinge tabs into the chassis slots so that the tabs hook over the slots.

6. Rotate the bracket toward the chassis floor and secure the bracket with a screw.

7. Connect a power cable to the power input connector on the back of the drive (see Figure 12).

8. Check all connectors to ensure that they are properly cabled and firmly seated.

9. Connect one of the device connectors on the EIDE cable to the 40-pin interface connector on the back of the hard-disk drive.

NOTICE: You must match the red colored stripe on the EIDE cable with pin 1 on the drive's interface connector to avoid possible

damage to your system.

CAUTION: To avoid the possibility of electric shock, turn off the computer and any peripherals, disconnect them from

electrical outlets, and then wait at least 5 seconds before you remove the computer cover. Also, before you install a drive, see

the other precautions in "Precautionary Measures."

NOTICE: You must attach the blue connector on the EIDE interface cable to the IDE1 connector on the system board to avoid

possible damage to your system.

10. If it is not already connected, connect the blue connector on the EIDE interface cable to the IDE1 connector on the system board.

To locate the IDE1 connector on the system board, see "System Board Components."

11. Replace the computer cover.

12. Reset the chassis intrusion detector. While in System Setup, update the appropriate Primary Drive option, 0or 1(see the online System

User's Guide for complete information).

13. Partition and logically format your drive before you proceed to the next step.

See the documentation for your operating system for instructions.

14. If the drive you just installed is the primary drive, install your operating system on the hard-disk drive.

For instructions, refer to the documentation that came with your operating system.

Note the routing of the DC power cables underneath the tabs in the chassis as you remove them from the system board and drives. It is

important to route these cables properly when you replace them to prevent them from being pinched or crimped.

3. Removethescrewbelowthefanguardonthebackofthechassis.

4. Slide the power supply toward the front of the computer approximately 1 inch.

5. Liftthepowersupplyupandoutofthechassis.

Expansion-Card Cage

Figure 14. Expansion-Card Cage Removal

To remove the expansion-card cage, perform the following steps:

1. Examine any cables connected to expansion cards through the back-panel openings and disconnect any cables that will not reach to where

the cage must be placed upon removal from the chassis.

2. Locatethesecuringlever(seeFigure14).Rotatetheleverupwarduntilitstopsinanuprightposition.

3. Slide the expansion-card cage out of the chassis.

4. Lift the expansion-card cage up and away from the chassis.

To replace the expansion-card cage into the low-profile chassis, perform the following steps:

1. With the securing lever in the upright position, align the expansion-card cage slots with the tabs in the chassis opening for the expansion-

card cage (see Figure 14). Slide the expansion-card cage into place.

2. Rotate the securing lever downward until it is flush with the top of the chassis. Make sure that the riser board is fully seated in the RISER

connector on the system board.

3. Reconnect any cables you removed in step 1 of the previous procedure.

Riser Boards

The low-profile chassis has a standard PCI riser board (see Figure 15) or an optional PCI/ISA riser board (see Figure 16). The PCI riser board

provides three PCI expansion-card slots. The PCI/ISA riser board provides one PCI expansion-card slot, one ISA expansion-card slot, and one

shared PCI/ISA expansion-card slot.
