Internal Design
The motherboard PCA is the central component of the Omnibook's design. It plays a role in virtually all system functions. The CPU module and most other subsystems connect to the motherboard. The following figure shows the connections among the Omnibook's replaceable electronic modules. In addition, the table on page 1-15 lists the roles that the replaceable modules play in each of the Omnibook's functional subsystems.

Always provide proper grounding when performing repairs. Without proper grounding, an electrostatic discharge can damage the Omnibook and its components.

Notes Reassembly steps are the reverse of the removal steps. Reassembly notes are included at the end of each section below. Symbols like this throughout this chapter show approximate full-size screw outlines. You can use these to verify the sizes of screws before you install them. Installing a wrong-size screw can damage the unit. (The symbol at the left represents an M2.5×5mm T-head screw.)

Removing an SDRAM Module
(User-Replaceable)
The computer has no SDRAM on its motherboard, but has two slots for that hold two SDRAM modules. One slot contains a SDRAM module installed at the factory.

Caution
Handle the SDRAM module only by its edges and provide proper grounding, or you might damage the board by electrostatic discharge.

Required Equipment

· Small Phillips screwdriver.
Removal Procedure

1. Unplug the AC adapter, if present, and remove the battery. Remove the secondary battery if one is installed. 2. Turn the unit bottom-side up, loosen the one or two screws holding the SDRAM cover (the cover may retain the screws), and remove the cover. 3. Release the two latches at the sides of the SDRAM module, so the free edge of the board pops up. 4. Pull the board out of the connector.

Figure 2-5. Removing a SDRAM Module Reassembly Notes

· Gently press the SDRAM module into the connector at about a 30° angle, until it is fully inserted. Then press down on both sides until the latches snap closed.

Removal and Replacement

HP Omnibook 6000/6100

Creating a Utility Partition
When you install a new hard drive, always create a Utility partition on the drive before loading any software. 1. Insert the Recovery CD in the CD-ROM drive. To open the drive when the computer is turned off, insert a straightened paper clip into the hole on the front of the drive. 2. Restart the computer. If the computer is running, click Start, Shut Down, Restart. 3. When you see the HP logo, press ESC. 4. Select the CD or DVD drive as the boot device. 5. When the Recovery CD dialog box appears, follow the displayed instructions. If prompted, accept the recommended partition size. If you install the factory software, the recovery process can take up to 10 minutes. If you want to create the Utility partition without installing the factory software, click Advanced and select the option to not install the operating system. If your hard disk is partitioned into several drives, you can install the factory software on drive C without affecting other drives. Click Advanced and select to restore only the C partition. 6. When prompted to reboot the computer, press CTRL+ALT+DEL and follow any instructions that appear onscreen.

Removing Mini-PCI Card #1
(User-Replaceable)
Certain computers include a mini-PCI card. Omnibook 6100 models may have a second mini-PCI card. See the table on page 2-34.

Caution
Handle the mini-PCI card only by its edges and provide proper grounding, or you might damage the board by electrostatic discharge. Required Equipment

· Small Phillips screwdriver.
Removal Procedure

1. Unplug the AC adapter, if present, and remove the battery. Remove the secondary battery if one is installed. 2. Loosen the screw holding the mini-PCI cover (the cover retains the screw), and remove the cover.

Caution
Be gentle when removing and attaching antenna cables from the mini-PCI card. Damage to cables or connectors can degrade performance.

3. Detach all the cables from the board. 4. Release the latches at the sides of the board, so that the free edge of the board pops up. 5. Gently pull the board out of its connector.

Figure 2-8. Removing the Mini-PCI Card Reassembly Notes

· Gently press the mini-PCI card into the connector at about a 30° angle, until it is fully inserted. Then press down on both sides until the latches snap closed.

· Before installing any screws, make sure the center hinge cover fits over the tab in the bottom case.
Important · Make sure the DIP switches on the display interface PCA match the settings shown on the label on the display cable, or you risk damaging the display. · Omnibook 6100: Reprogram the BIOS IC, preferably with the latest BIOS for display compatibility. · Omnibook 6000: If you change the DIP switches, use the service utilities disk to reprogram the EEPROM--see page 2-31. If the EEPROM is not programmed correctly, the display will not turn on.

Reassembly Notes

· Tighten screws around the CPU as denoted on the heatsink assembly. · When installing a new heatsink, use the thin heatsink when the bottom case has a circular vent. Use the thick heatsink with all other bottom cases. · If the power supply PCA has a metal cover on it, ensure that there is not a spacer pad in the same location on the heatsink. If both are present, remove the spacer pad.

Caution
Restore proper thermal contact when installing the heatsink. Otherwise, performance can be significantly degraded. Carefully clean the heatsink and CPU surfaces and install a new thermal pad on the heatsink in these situations: · · · Required whenever you install a new CPU for any model. Required whenever you remove the heatsink from an Omnibook 6000 with an 800-MHz or faster CPU. Recommended whenever you remove the heatsink from any other model.

Reassembly Notes

· Carefully insert the CPU module into the motherboard, and turn the lock screw one-half turn clockwise to secure the CPU module. · The CPU module is keyed for installation, and can only be inserted one way.
Omnibook 6000: Setting the SpeedStep Power Level DIP Switches Whenever you install a new CPU, you must make sure the SpeedStep power level DIP switches are set correctly for that CPU. These switches are located on the motherboard next to the volume PCA. They control the power level to the CPU in the SpeedStep high-speed mode. The settings to use depend on the speed of the CPU: 900­1000MHz CPUs Other CPUs 1: ON 1: ON 2: OFF 2: ON 3: OFF 3: ON 4: ON 4: OFF 5: ON 5: ON 6: not used 6: not used
