force when wriggling the heatsink.)
3. Once the CPU is loosened, remove the
heatsink from the CPU socket.

to get rid of the old thermal grease. Reapply the

Installing a Passive Heatsink
1. Do not apply any thermal grease to the
heatsink or the CPU die; the required amount
has already been applied.
2. Place the heatsink on top of the CPU so
that the four mounting holes are aligned with
those on the retention mechanism.
3. Screw in two diagonal screws (ie the #1
and the #2 screws) until just snug (-do not
over-tighten the screws to avoid possible
damage to the CPU.)
4. Finish the installation by fully tightening
all four screws.
