Hey!
Sorry for resurrecting an old post, but if anyone stumbled upon this post from your favorite search engine (hi!), you can do these without disassembling your machine. YMMV, but at least it works for me. Big props to @Chad_Nelson for pointing in the right direction!
You may want to unplug your mains adapter while following this:
- Reboot into the BIOS (F2); see How do I enter the BIOS on the Framework Laptop?
- Find the Disconnect Battery option and enable it. After saving this setting, your system will be shut down.
- Hold the power button for a few seconds.
- Replug the mains adapter. After a while, you should be able to boot the system again with all expansion cards working again!
In my case, I did not need to reset the BIOS, but if the above does not work for you, you may also consider doing that.
I hope it helps whoever is out there. Have a great day (or evening!)
