Remove Level 2 Cache Card
1. Identify the internal components of your StarMax. Touch the
metal shielding (Figure 3) of the internal assembly (that houses the
floppy and hard disk drives) to discharge any potential damaging
static electricity.
2. If installed, remove the Level 2 cache card located between the
CPU card and the internal fan of the computer (Figure 3).
Reset CUDA Switch
Reset the CUDA switch (Figure 4) on the logic board. It looks like a
miniature doorbell and is usually located toward the rear of the
computer next to the DRAM (memory) DIMM slots. Resetting this
switch ensures that a processor upgrade card installed into your
computer is recognized at the next startup.
