For these models, the logic board must first be
removed from the computer in order to gain access
to the Level 2 cache card. Once the logic board is
removed, the Level 2 cache card is located towards
the outer edge of the logic board populated with
DRAM (memory) DIMMs (Figure 2). If there is a
Level 2 cache card installed in your computer, it will
be located in the L2 Cache Slot (the shorter slot
located in the middle of the DRAM DIMMs). After
the Level 2 cache card is removed, reinstall the logic
board and proceed with resetting the CUDA switch
on the logic board and the installation of the
Crescendo/PCI card.
