How to remove a CPU?
I'm currently working what seems to be a dead motherboard for an HP Pavillion 725n. I need to remove the CPU (if possible) and stick it in another motherboard to see if it's salvagable. I've never done this before, however, and I have no clue how to remove it!
The CPU has a heat sink on top of it, which is firmly attached, with no screws. Best I can tell, it has a little bar running across the middle that's TIGHTLY latched to both sides of the CPU, and doesn't look like I could unlatch it without breaking something.
Can you guys point me in a direction with this? I'll be online for quite a bit if anyone cares to IM me and walk me through a little of it too. THANKS!
