NEC Z1 case removal
by phlame - 7/11/05 4:22 PMI am trying to remove the case of the NEC Z1 to upgrade the processor. Naturally, there are no instructions for for this in the manual or online that I can find...there is little or no support for it. If anyone has removed the case, I would appreciate any direction or help you can give me.
Thanks,
Don't know if this will help, but...

NEC what?

By experience, find any screws on back and remove only if as a guess. Some covers are "tang(tongue)&grove" they match into each other and snap or press fit into one another. If a small slot is present, see if applying pressure with tool or fingers depresses enough to unsnap, work it. One end may screw down and then lift to reveal a tang&groove on corresponding side, lift and separate. Use common sense as once revealed, you see what logic went into putting it together. Also, a decal cover could be hiding a hidden screw, a warranty seal or such , depicts work done outside of warranty channels, proceed if no warranty.

Yes, I removed the monitor, but I could not find a way to get inside the case. Can you describe how to do that...I'd be forever grateful! <G>
