Just get some small screw drivers and go for it. You could have it done in a couple hours at your worst. Just follow the manual. If you have a couple screws left over at the end of the project it's no biggie. Each time you take a panel or part off, set it aside with the screws next to it or even in the holes where they go when you put it back together. Items a through f in the service manual for this task are nothing. A walk in the park. Item g is just some careful prying after the screws are out. The system board isn't going to be that difficult once you get everything else off. You can do this. Go find a vacant office where no one will bug you for an hour or two and get to it! Oh, but get a replacement fan off of eBay first before you start. ;)

I've been replacing old machines with newer ones as people leave and their position isn't filled. Most of my desktops have been refreshed with relatively new Optiplex machines. I do have some extra equipment, so it's not that big a deal, just that the user in question (claims manager) probably won't be happy about having to switch machines for a few days. :D ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ --- To manage subscriptions click here: http://lyris.sunbelt-software.com/read/my_forums/ or send an email to listmana...@lyris.sunbeltsoftware.com with the body: unsubscribe ntsysadmin
