The following steps will provide you information on how to open the case for the dell Inspiron 519 desktop computer you are requesting.
Step 1. Before you begin, you must ensure that you have unplugged the computer system from the electrical outlet along with all other cords. This will help ensure your safety to reduce the chance of electrical shock.
It is important to remember that when working inside any electronic device that capacitors can hold an electrical charge for an extended period of time even when there is no power source directly connected to the system and can still cause an electrical shock.Step 2. Lay the computer tower on it's side with the cover facing up.
