 One of the basic skills that you must acquire in computer hardware servicing is to
independently assemble and disassemble a personal computer or simply setting up a PC. After
familiarizing with all the tools, devices, peripherals and safety precautions I believe that you are
now ready to gain another experience in CHS by going through this lesson.

INSTALLATION OF HARDWARE COMPONENTS AND OTHER

PERIPHERALS

Personal Computer Disassembly

Before starting computer disassembly, make sure you have the tools you need and they're all
close by and handy and be sure to have a container to keep the screws in so you have them when
you want to put things back together.
Step1. Unplugging - The first thing you do is to unplug every cable that is plugged in to your
computer. That includes the cables such as Power, USB, Mouse, Keyboard, Internet, Ethernet,
Modem, AM\FM Antenna, Cable TV, etc. Just unplug all the cables for safety purposes. Now that
your computer is fully unplugged, move your PC to a clean work space.
Step2.Opening the Outer Shell/Case- First,
unscrew the four screws at the back of the computer.
On most computer cases, there will be large knobs that
you can unscrew by hand or by screw driver on the
back-right side of the computer. The left side has small
screws because on that side you can't access much on
the inside.

Figure 1. Screw at the back of computer chasis

Once the screws are removed, you can remove the side panels. On most computers, they
just slide off. Start with the left side panel (the side that once had the knobs), slide it towards the
back of the computer. Now you can remove the left panel. Just like the other side, slide it towards
the back of the computer.
NOTICE:
If you are working on a
carpet, about every five
minutes touch something
that is grounded (Sink
Side
faucet / pipe, wire coming
Panel from the ground part of a
wall outlet). This is done
so you do not shock your
motherboard or other
parts.
Figure 2. Removing the
side panel
Step3. Removing
the System Fan - First,
unplug the fan from the motherboard. You can find the plug by following the wire from the fan. It
should be labeled "SYS_FAN1". Next, you will have to unscrew the fan from the outside. You should
now be able to lift the fan out of the PC.

Step4. Removing the CPU Fan- The CPU
fan is located right on top of the CPU heat sink,
which is a large piece of metal with fins on the top.
The CPU fan plugs into the motherboard in an
awkward place, that is hard to access. But just
follow the wires and you should easily find it. It is
labeled "CPU FAN1". To remove the fan from the
heat sink, remove the four screws securing it in
place.

Step5. Power Supply - The first thing to do is unplug
every wire coming from the power supply. You must
disconnect the motherboard (very large
connector/plug), CD/DVD drive(s) power, internal hard
drive power and portable hard drive slot power. Once
everything is unplugged, unscrew the four screws
holding the power supply in place, on the back of the
computer. Next, push the power supply from the
outside, and then lift it out.
Figure 5. Unscrew the power supply

Step6. CD/ DVD Drive(s)-First, unplug the

ribbon from
the back of the drive. Once that is
completed, pull on the tab securing the drive
in place, then push it out from the inside. CD / DVD
Drive

 Step7. Hard Drive - First, unplug the connector at the back of the slot, and unplug the other
end from the motherboard. Also unplug the SATA cable from the motherboard and the hard drive.
The portable hard drive slot is secured the same way the CD/DVD drive is, with a tab. Pull on the tab,
then slide the slot out.
To remove the hard drive from the side of the slot, unscrew the four screws securing it in place.
You must be very careful not to drop the hard drive, since it is very delicate!

of the slot
Step8. Memory (RAM) - To remove the Random Access Memory, push down on both tabs
holding the RAM in place, which are located at both ends of the RAM.

Figure 9. Removing the Memory

Step9. Motherboard - The motherboard has seven screws holding it to the frame, which
are indicated by large white circles around
them. Remove them and then lift the
motherboard out of the frame.
