Dell Inspiron 8200 CPU Replacement

Remove all screws with the letter 'K' next to them

Open the laptop and remove the keyboard, Simply pull it up through any key and then carefully pull the gray ribbon cable to disconnect the keyboard,NOT THE BLUE ONE,IT WILL BREAK IF YOU DO,(mine is missing from past mistakes)and now slide the keyboard to the right and carefully pull it out

Now remove the power button assembly cover by pulling up on the sides and the middle

Now pry next to the heatsink, bending the metal bar until it opens, Then open it all the way and remove the heatsink by pulling upwards ,Now i modded mine to have thermal paste so yours will not have any, so do not worry

Turn the screw left and carefully pull out the CPU then set it aside

Insert the new CPU with the text upside down and turn the screw right fully

Now put the heatsink back on and press the cover on until it makes a loud clicking noise
