NOTE: Step 1 applies to HP Compaq 6715 computer models. The heat sink on HP Compaq 6710
computer models is secured to the computer by captive screws which must be loosened rather than
removed.
1.
Remove the four Phillips PM2.0×6.0 screws (1) that secure the heat sink to the system board.
2.
Release the heat sink (2) by lifting the right side until it disengages from the processor.
NOTE: Due to the adhesive quality of the thermal material located between the heat sink and
processor, it may be necessary to move the heat sink from side to side to detach the heat sink from
the processor.
3. Remove the heat sink (3) by swinging it counterclockwise until the left side of the heat sink clears
the top cover.
NOTE: The thermal material must be thoroughly cleaned from the surfaces of the heat sink (1)
and the processor and system board components (2) each time the heat sink is removed. Thermal
material is included with all heat sink and processor spare part kits.
Reverse this procedure to install the heat sink.
