Unfasten the heat sink

Some laptop heat sinks and fans connect as one assembly, and some have separate fans.
Disconnect, unscrew, and remove any fans that sit atop your laptop's heatsink.
Use a screwdriver to remove the screws securing the heatsink to the chassis.
During reassembly:
Tighten the heat sink screws around the CPU or GPU in an "X" pattern.
