Removing a Processor

1 Remove the blade. See "Removing a Blade" on page 155.
2 Open the blade. See "Opening the Blade" on page 159.

WARNING:

The processor and heat sink can become extremely hot. Be sure the

processor has had sufficient time to cool before handling.

NOTE:

Never remove the heat sink from a processor unless you intend to remove

the processor. The heat sink is necessary to maintain proper thermal conditions.

3 Loosen the screws that secure the heat sink to the system board. See the

appropriate illustration for your blade.
