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.
