| + | [title] Remove the heatsink & the fan |
|---|---|
| + | [* orange] Using a PH #00 unfasten the 8 screws that secure the heatsink to the motherboard. ***The screw marked as red in the picture is the first one to unfasten.*** If you take a closer look, that screw is referred as "1" on the heatsink itself. Therefore, when unscrewing, follow the numerical order. |
| + | [* icon_caution] Do not remove these screws from the heatsink. We need only to unfasten them. |
| + | [* yellow] Once you are done with the screws, grab the heatsink and the fan as it is shown in the second picture, tilt them up a bit and carefully slide them along the motherboard until the fan is free of the metal plate marked as green in the first picture. Then, you can put the heatsink and the fan safely away. |
| + | [* icon_caution] The heatsink and the fan must come out together from the laptop. Be extremely careful when you are removing them because now there is only a thin stripe of tape that keep them together! Therefore they could suddenly divide in two and hit the motherboard or other components. |
