To do that you'll need to remove your mobo. Maybe someone knows of another kind of retention clip that doesn't require you to complete dissemble your computer.

>Hi, I'm new to the list. I have installed sdram units, a new HD, a cd-rw, a pci network card, and a video card. I just ordered and received a cpu and heatsink. My m/b is slot 1 and so is this new cpu, but my old cpu (celeron 266) is held by 2 clips at each end and the newer one (p2 333) needs the one piece retention mechanism.Has anyone sucessfully changed from one type of retention mechanisn to another, and does any one have an online source for these one piece retainers?
