Product: Z840
Hi
Looking at the BIOS options for the Z840, I can see a "Smart Cover Sensor" option, which shows (on searching) as "Factory Option" and no after factory kit - however it also says "Standard on all systems"
It looks like the sensor is part G8X56AV - which I can see "for sale" in various places, but I cannot see:
a) Where this would connect on the Z840 motherboard
b) if the BIOS would recognise it, or is this a FeatureByte item?
Can anyone assist?
