Identify and Remove a Faulty Processor
d.
Remove the processor carrier with processor from the heatsink by prying or
pinching the plastic latch tabs that attach the processor to the heatsink.
Note -
A thin layer of thermal grease separates the heatsink and the processor. This grease
acts as an adhesive. Do not allow the thermal grease to contaminate the work space or other
components.
6.
If you plan on reusing either the heatsink or processor, use an alcohol pad to
clean the thermal grease on the underside of the heatsink and on the top of the
processor.
Caution -
Failure to clean thermal grease from the heatsink could result in the accidental
contamination of the processor socket or other components. Also, be careful not to get the
grease on your fingers, as this could result in contamination of components.
