Turn the computer back over.

The cable you're about to remove is very fragile - do not pull directly on the wires. Instead, try to pry up the connector directly, using a spudger or a small flathead screwdriver if necessary.

Disconnect the microphone cable at the front of the computer, between the left side of the hard drive and the metal framework, removing tape as necessary.

Although not absolutely essential, removal of the hard drive will give enough space to remove the connector with your fingers.
