I'm trying to non-destructively open up a MicroVAX 2000.
I've removed the bottom "dressing" section (which holds some of the I/O
connectors)? but the next step isn't obvious. None of the manuals I have
cover dismantling and the net doesn't have an IPB or similar available.
Other people have managed to get inside (I can see their results) so I
must be missing something obvious ...
Thanks.
Antonio
Antonio,
From memory, the 2000 case covers are really tight and may need a bit
of leverage to remove, assuming all the screws have been removed. Very
close fitting rfi shields + several years of light corrosion etc...
Regards,
Chris
