System halted while the air cooler was inactive.
System halted while the air cooler was inactive.
I was attempting to remove my cooler to renew the paste, but both the cooler and CPU came off at once. There were no visible pins that were broken or missing. I’ve tried removing the CPU from the cooler, but it won’t move, and I checked other forums for advice, but none of their solutions helped. I was considering heating the CPU and then using a wrench to detach it, though I’m planning to add padding between the sides to avoid scratches. Would you think this approach could work?
