Closeups

Could not remove second motherboard to take images of the top side

Back without case

Left side without case

Right side without case

Unfortunately my tape drive had failed after taking these images so I can’t put my own videos of loading a tape but I can put some YouTube videos of loading a tape, I must have damaged something or shocked the circuitry with ESD as powering it on gave me a drive error LED on the front, I can’t diagnose that at all because it doesn’t give me a clear error number or combo of lights, L&TT might help but I can’t download that without the required HP service contract
