Removing the Processor
CAUTION:
Many repairs may only be done by a certified service technician. You should only perform
troubleshooting and simple repairs as authorized in your product documentation, or as directed by the online or
telephone service and support team. Damage due to servicing that is not authorized by Dell is not covered by your
warranty. Read and follow the safety instructions that came with the product.
CAUTION:
The processor and heat sink can get very hot during normal operation. Ensure that they have had
sufficient time to cool before you touch them.
1 Turn off the system and attached peripherals, and disconnect the system from the electrical outlet.
2 Open the system. See "Opening the System" on page 41.
3 Using a #2 Phillips screwdriver, loosen the two captive screws holding the heat sink and shroud
assembly in place.
These captive screws are adjacent to the processor cooling fan housing. See Figure 3-15.
4 Tilt the heat sink and shroud assembly away from the fan housing and lift it out.
