Remove the heatsink & the fan
  • Using a PH#00 screwdriver unfasten the eight not-releasable screws that secure the heatsink to the motherboard. Nearby the screws you will notice that numbers have been impressed: the screw marked in red is the first one that has to be unfastened, follow then the order.

  • Once you are done with the screws, grab the heatsink and the fan as it is shown in pic#2, tilt them up a bit, and carefully slide them forward a little: until the fan is free of the left display hinge marked in green in pic#1. Finally then, rise them up and put them aside.

  • Keep the fan and the heatsink tight when you are removing them: there is only a thin stripe of adhesive tape that holds them together! They can split up at any time and hit the motherboard.
