5. Remove the screws (five, maximum) that secure the Fiery X3eTY motherboard to the pan.
6. Slide the motherboard away from the connector panel cutouts.
Make sure to note the position of the “metal fingers” on the USB connectors so that you
can re-position them later.
7. Lift the motherboard out of the pan and set it on a flat anti-static surface.
As you remove it, be careful to avoid stressing the motherboard or the surrounding cables
in the pan.
8. If you are replacing the motherboard with a new motherboard, then remove the CPU
and CPU cooling assembly, the DIMMs, and the BIOS chip from the old motherboard
(see “Removing and replacing components” on page 17).
