      • Unplug the keyboard from the computer.

      • Because this keyboard does not use a detachable cable, you will have to detach the cable from the PC directly.

      • The location of the cable depends on how you had installed the keyboard into the PC. (In my case, I have it installed on the rear of my PC next to my ethernet cable).

      • RGB lights indicate that power is running through the keyboard.

      • Make sure that no power is running through the keyboard during the replacement process.
