place.
a. Remove the clip from the heat sink by pushing forward on the back of the
clip and up on the lever. After the clip releases from the heat sink, lift it up
and off the heat sink.
Note: A thermal material is used between the heatsink and the processor.
This material, when heated and cooled, causes the heatsink to adhere
to the processor. Some force may be required to remove the heatsink.
b. Firmly grasp the heat sink and lift it off the microprocessor.
Attention: Do not use excessive force or tools to remove the heatsink.
c. Discard the used heatsink.
d. Lift up the release lever and remove the microprocessor from the connector.
Store the microprocessor in a static-protective bag for possible future use.
Note: If you are installing a new microprocessor, go to "Installing the
microprocessor" on page 88.
If you are not replacing the microprocessor, then you must reinstall
the terminator card. Push the release latch down to lock the
terminator card into place.
