    • Remove the two Phillip screws holding the power supply into the the case and lift the power supply out.

    • When installing a new power supply ensure that the voltage selector is correctly set before you connect the mains cable.

    • Incorrect voltage settings will damage the power supply and may also cause other components to be damaged.

In mine, the power supply was much longer due to a fan located on the front end. Same basic disassembly, however. There was a green tab at the front and it was difficult, but the power supply (with effort) did slide forward and out.
