    Electrostatic Discharge
    A sudden discharge of static electricity from a finger or other conductor can destroy static-
    sensitive devices or microcircuitry. Often the spark is neither felt nor heard, but damage 
    occurs. An electronic device exposed to electrostatic discharge (ESD) may not seem to be 
    affected at all and works perfectly throughout a normal cycle. Although it may function 
    normally for a while, it may be degraded in the internal layers, reducing its life expectancy.
    Networks built into many integrated circuits provide some protection, but in many cases, 
    the discharge contains enough power to alter device parameters or melt silicon junctions.
    Generating Static
    The table below shows activities that generate static electricity and the associated 
    electrostatic voltage level.

    Service Considerations
    Listed below are some of the considerations to consider during the disassembly and 
    assembly of the Notebook.
    Tool and Software Requirements
    The following items are required to service the computer:
    •Compaq screwdriver kit (Spare Part No. 161946-001)
    Torx T-9 screwdriver
    3/16-in. and 5mm nut drivers (for screwlocks and standoffs)
    Small, standard screwdriver
    Small, Phillips screwdriver
    Diagnostics software 
    Screws
    The screws used in the Notebook are not interchangeable. If an incorrect screw is used 
    during the reassembly process, it can damage the unit. Compaq strongly recommends that 
    all screws removed during disassembly be kept with the part that was removed, and then 
    returned to their proper locations.
    Important: As each subassembly is removed from the Notebook, place it away from the 
    work area to prevent damage.

    Cables and Connectors
    Cables must be handled with extreme care to avoid damage. Apply only the tension 
    required to seat or unseat the cables during insertion or removal from the connector. 
    Handle cables by the connector whenever possible. In all cases, avoid bending, twisting, or 
    tearing the cables, and ensure that the cables are routed in such a way that they cannot be 
    caught or snagged by parts being removed or replaced. Most cables used throughout the 
    unit are ribbon cables.
    Cables
    Use the following precautions when handling cables to avoid damage to the cable or 
    Notebook:
    Always handle cables by their connectors.
    Avoid bending, twisting, or pulling on the cables.
    Apply minimum required force when seating or unseating the cables from their 
    connectors.
    Place the cables in such a manner that they cannot be caught or snagged by parts 
    being removed or replaced.
    Handle flex cables with extreme care; they can tear easily.

    ÄÄ Ä
    CAUTION: When servicing these computers, ensure that cables are placed in their 
    proper location during the reassembly process. Improper cable placement can 
    cause severe damage to the unit.
    The following illustrations show the proper placement for each cable:
    Connectors and Plastic Parts
    Plastic parts can be damaged by the use of excessive force during disassembly and 
    reassembly. When handling these plastic parts, use care. Apply pressure only at the points 
    designated in the maintenance instructions.ZIF Connector

    ZIF Connector
    The 1200XL Series Notebooks use zero insertion force (ZIF) connectors on the system 
    board.
    Ä
    ÄÄ Ä
    CAUTION: A ZIF connector and its attached cable can be easily damaged. Handle 
    only the connector slide when removing or replacing a cable. Never pull or twist on 
    the cable while it is connected.
    To remove a cable from a ZIF connector, lift both corners of the ZIF connector and slide the 
    cable out simultaneously with constant light force.

    Preparing the Notebook for Disassembly
    Before beginning Removal & Replacement Procedures, complete the following steps:
    1. Disconnect AC power and any external devices.
    2. Remove the battery pack (pg 11
    ).
    3. Remove any PC Cards.
    Important: The battery pack should be removed before performing any internal 
    maintenance on the Notebook.
    Å
    WARNING: Metal objects can damage the battery pack as well as the battery 
    contacts in the battery compartment. To prevent damage, do not allow metal 
    objects to touch the battery contacts. Place only the battery pack for the Compaq 
    Presario 1200XL Series Portable Notebooks into the battery compartment. Do not 
    force the battery pack into the bay if insertion is difficult.
    Ä
    ÄÄ Ä
    CAUTION: Do not crush, puncture, or incinerate the battery pack. Do not open a 
    battery pack; this action damages the pack, makes it unusable, and exposes 
    potentially harmful battery components. No field-serviceable parts are located 
    inside the battery pack.
    Note: Compaq Presario 1200XL Series Portable Notebooks have several screws of 
    various sizes that are not interchangeable. Care must be taken during reassembly 
    to ensure that the correct screws are used in their correct location. During removal 
    keep respective screws with their associated subassembly.
