Subtest 4 [Address Uniqueness Test]
This test writes the number of passes (UNIT32) (default is 0)
per LBA and the LBA number (UNIT32). To the rest of a LBA
(calculated as “LBA size - (UNIT32)*2”), it writes “0”.
This test writes the test data up to the last address. Then it
reads out the data to compare. The number of passes will be
0 (default value) unless comparing of the whole data is
completed. At the beginning of the test in the second round,
the number would become 1 (when Test Loop Yes is
selected. When Test Loop No is selected, the number will
not be changed. In that case, the number remains 0 at the
end of the test. ) If the test data and read data is not the
same, this test displays a message of “Data Compare error”

Please prepare required parts in advance, when replacing the relevant
items.
4.1 Safety Precautions

Please read the following safety instructions before disassembling the
computer and always follow the instructions while working on the computer.
1. Always use the genuine battery that is authorized by Dynabook or

compatible with the unit. Since other battery packs have different
specifications, they may be incompatible with the unit, and may burst or
explode.
Never heat or disassemble the battery pack, as that could cause
leakage of alkaline solution. Never throw the battery pack into a fire, as
that could cause the battery pack to explode.
2. The power supply and other components carry high voltages. If you
need to turn on the power of a partially disassembled computer to
check its operation, be very careful not to touch connectors or
components, in order to avoid the risk of electric shock.
Also, do not disassemble individual components in first-level
maintenance.
1. Turn off the power and disconnect the AC adaptor from the power
source, to avoid exposure to electric shock.
2. Batteries in the computer retain an electrical charge, so there is danger
of electrical shock even when the computer is disconnected from an
AC power source. Remove any metal jewelry or accessories such as
necklaces, bracelets or rings, in order to reduce the risk of electric
shock. Never work with wet or damp hands.
3. Be careful of edges and corners as these may cut.

1. When you change a component, be sure the replacement component

meets the required specifications. Never use foreign parts, to avoid any
risk of damage to the computer.
2. To avoid any risk of short-circuit, fire or other internal damage, never
allow any metal objects such as screws or paper clips to fall into the
unit. Be sure to replace screws with the same size as those removed.
Make sure all screws are securely fastened. Loose screws can cause
short circuits, resulting in heat, smoke or fire.
3. Before lifting out an FRU or other component, make sure all cables to
the component have been disconnected, in order to reduce the risk of
accidental electric shock.
4. If you use AC power, be sure to use the cable that came with the
computer or one recommended by Dynabook.
5. Make sure that all replacement components meet the specifications for
the computer and that all cables and connectors are securely fastened,
in order to avoid the risk of electric shock.
6. Some parts inside the computer, such as the CPU and cooling module,
become very hot during operation. Conduct repair work after they have
cooled. Be careful around the CPU and cooling module to avoid burns.
4.2 Before You Begin

Take note of the following points before starting work. Always remove the
AC adaptor and battery pack before commencing any of the procedures.
The procedure for removing the battery pack is described in 4.12 Battery
pack.
1. Do not disassemble the computer unless it is operating abnormally.
2. Use the recommended tools.
3. Ensure that the environment for working on and storing parts does not
contain any of the following.
■ Dust or dirt
■ Static electricity
■ Extremely hot, cold, or humid conditions
4. Perform the diagnostic tests described in Chapter 2 to identify the FRU
that has probably caused the system failure.
5. Do not perform any unnecessary work. Always work in accordance with
the disassembly and re-assembly procedures in this manual.
6. Keep parts removed from the computer in a safe place away from the
computer where they will not be damaged or interfere with your work.
7. Disassembling requires the removal of a large number of screws. Keep
removed screws in a safe place such that you can determine which
screws belong to which part.
8. When re-assembling, ensure that you use the correct screws and fit
parts in the correct position. Screw sizes are noted in the text and
figures.

9. As all parts have sharp edges and corners, take care not to cut yourself.
10. After replacing an FRU, check that the computer and replaced part
operate correctly.
4.3 Disassembly Procedure

Four main types of cable connector are used.
■ Pressure plate connector
■ Spring connector
■ Back flip connector
■ Normal pin connector
For pressure plate connectors, slide the pressure plate holding tags on
both sides of the plastic pressure plate on the connector and pull the cable
out from the connector. When reconnecting the cable to the pressure plate
connector, slide the pressure plate holding tags on both sides of the plastic
pressure plate on the connector and insert the cable into the connector.
Push both tags of the pressure plate such that the cable is fixed in the
correct position. Pull the cable to ensure that it is securely connected.
For spring connectors, lift up the stopper frees the cable and allow it to be
pulled out. To reconnect, hold the stopper in the up position and insert the
cable, then lower the stopper to secure the cable. Pull the cable to ensure
that it is securely connected.
For back flip connectors, lift up the flip plate frees the cable and allow it to
be pulled out. To reconnect, hold the flip plate in the up position and insert
the cable, then lower the flip plate to secure the cable. Pull the cable to
ensure that it is securely connected.
Normal pin connectors are used for all other cables. Simply pull out or push
in these connectors to disconnect or reconnect.
Figure 4-1 Pressure plate connector/Spring connector/Back flip connector
4.4 Assembly Procedures

After the computer has been disassembled and the part that caused the
fault has been repaired or replaced, the computer must be reassembled.

Take note of the following general points when assembling the computer.
■ Take your time and follow the instructions carefully. Hurrying the
assembly work will only introduce new problems.
■ Check that all cables and connectors are securely connected.
■ Before fastening FRUs or other parts in place, ensure that no cables
are caught on screws or the FRU.
■ Check that all latches are securely closed.
■ Ensure that you have installed all FRUs correctly and do not have any
screws left over. Using an incorrect screw may damage the thread or
screw head and result in the FRU not being securely fastened in place.
After installing FRUs, check that the computer operates correctly.
4.5 Tools and Equipment

For your safety and the safety of the people around you, it is important that
you use Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) equipment. Correctly utilizing of the
equipment increases the percentage of successful repairs and saves on
the cost of damaged or destroyed parts. The following equipment is
required for disassembly and assembly.
■ One Philips screwdriver with type 0 bit (for S-THIN HEAD screws)
■ One Philips screwdriver with type 1 bit (for screws other than above)
■ One flat-blade screwdriver (for removing the CPU)
■ Tweezers (for lifting screws)
■ ESD mats (lay on work table or floor)
■ An ESD wrist strap and heel grounder
■ Anti-static carpet or flooring
■ Air-ionizers in highly static sensitive areas
■ Antenna coaxial cable disconnector
■ Special syringe (for applying grease)
4.6 Screw Tightening Torque

When you fasten screws, be sure to follow the torque list below.
Overtightening can damage components and screws; undertightening can
result in electrical shorts or other damage if screws or components come
loose.
Dynabook recommends that you use an electric screw driver for quick and
easy operations.
■ M2 (2mm) 0.167 N•m (1.7 kgf cm)
■ M2.5 (2.5mm) 0.294 N•m (3.0 kgf cm)

To prevent damage to THIN HEAD screws, use type 0 bit philips

screwdriver. Press along the axis of the screwdriver while turning the
screw. This is because the contact area between the screw and driver is
less than for a pan head screw (standard pan-shaped screw head).
4.7 Grip Color

Some screws have a colored grip area to help you determine the length of
the screw.
[Normal grip]
■ Normal length screws: Blue
■ Special length screws: Green
■ Tight grip screw: Yellow
“Special length screw” means screws whose length is indicated in an
integral number to the first decimal places such as 2.5 mm, 2.6 mm and so
on.
Grip area
4.8 Screw Notation

To make maintenance of the computer easier, markings of the kinds of the
screws including the types and lengths of the screws are indicated on the
computer body.
Screw type + Screw length (mm)
Screw shape
B: Bind screw
F: Flat head screw
S: Super thin head screw
T: Tapping screw
U: Other screws (Unique screws: pan head, stud, etc.)

Example: B6 ... 6mm BIND screw

Handling the LCD Module
A.1 Precautions for handling the LCD module

The LCD module can be easily damaged during assembly or disassembly.
Observe the following precautions when handling the LCD module:
1. When installing the LCD module in the LCD cover, be sure to seat it so
that it is properly aligned and maximum visibility of the display is
maintained.
2. Be careful to align the holes at the four corners of the LCD module with
the corresponding holes in the LCD cover before securing the module
with screws.
Do not force the module into place, because stress can affect its
performance.
Also, the panel’s polarized surface is easily scarred, so be careful when
handling it.
Maintenance Manual (960-946) A-1

3. If the panel’s surface gets dirty, wipe it with cotton or a soft cloth. If it is
still dirty, try breathing on the surface to create a light condensate and
wipe it again.
If the surface is very dirty, we recommend a CRT cleaning agent. Apply
the agent to a cloth and then wipe the panel’s surface. Do not apply
cleanser directly to the panel.
4. If water or other liquid is left on the panel’s surface for a long period, it
can change the screen’s tint or stain it. Be sure to quickly wipe off any
liquid.
5. Glass is used in the panel, so be careful not to drop it or let it strike a

hard object, which could cause breakage or cracks.

6. CMOS-LSI circuits are used in the module, so guard against damage

from electrostatic discharge. Be sure to wear a wrist or ankle ground
when handling the module.
7. Do not expose the module to direct sunlight or strong ultraviolet rays for
long periods.
8. Do not store the module at temperatures below specifications. Cold can

cause the liquid crystals to freeze, lose their elasticity or otherwise
suffer damage.

9. Do not disassemble the LCD module. Disassembly can cause

malfunctions.
10. If you transport the module, do not use packing material that contains
epoxy resin (amine) or silicon glue (alcohol or oxide). These materials
can release gas that can damage the panel’s polarization.

5. The BIOS rewriting starts.
6. When the process is completed, the system automatically reboots.
1. Connect the AC adaptor and the charged battery to the computer when
you rewrite the BIOS.
2. Do not turn off the power while you are rewriting the BIOS.
3. If the rewrite fails, it might be impossible to start up the computer.
4. If you fail to rewrite BIOS, then when you next turn on the power, a
message may be displayed that the contents of the BIOS have been
erased. In this case, insert the BIOS rewriting disk and the BIOS will be
rewritten.
