    • Two cables still connect to the logic board and must be removed before pulling the board entirely out of the computer.

    • Use a spudger to gently (very gently) pry up the left side of the logic board.

    • If the logic board does not immediately come free, it may be necessary to soften the thermal paste between the logic board and heat sink. You can soften the thermal compound using a hairdryer. Move the hairdryer back and forth between the two fans about one inch above the logic board for one minute. At this point, the logic board should now come free easily.

    • Important: when you reinstall a logic board, you'll need to replace the thermal paste that goes between the processor on the logic board and the heat sink. Failure to remove the old paste and apply a new layer can cause the computer to overheat and sustain damage.

    • To properly reassemble your PowerBook, you'll have to clean off and replace the old thermal compound. Use our Applying Thermal Paste Guide to prepare the processor and heat sink surfaces.

    • Use a firm plastic edge to scrape the thermal material off the processor.

    • When replacing the logic board, make sure all cables are routed around and above - not under - it, and to connect the two cables that do go beneath before pushing the board into place.

    • Place the logic board back in the computer, trying not to move it around once the processor has come into contact with the newly-applied thermal paste.

    • Use your thumbs to slide the RJ-11 board away from the sound card in the same direction you would disconnect a cable. This is your chance to get out some aggression, as the board will most likely be very tight and requires a good deal of force to remove. Don't get carried away though - don't hold onto the power connector and don't put too much actual force on the card itself.

    • The DC/Sound card should now be free.

The Tools Used list specifies a #6 Torx wrench, but in step 7 it says a 1.5mm hex wrench is preferred. This is good to know ahead of time since a #6 Torx wrench is not available from the local hardware store, but a 1.5mm hex wrench is.

Thermal paste is required for reassembly at step 17.

I follow the instruction to open the box, but you don't have to take the whole computer apart to get to the part. You can work on the side where the part is and it is much more easier. The chance of breaking a wire is less likely. I recommend that once the box is open and the mainboard is exposed, that the person on unscrew the left speakers, remove the screw near the small left speaker. Remove the screws that secure the PC Card tray, remove the tray. Remove the screws that secure the electronic eye to the top left, remove the screw that secure the dc board and the parts is ready to come out.

Agreed - I just removed the DC/sound board without touching the logic board! very happy =)
