Quincy, You may want to gently just lift the processor partially out of the socket then push it back in. this will reduce the chance of bent pins.
You can do this by sliding a slotted (flat blade) screwdriver under the chip (between the processor and the socket) then gently rotate the screw driver clockwise and countrr clockwise. you do not even need to turn it 90 degrees. Turning it between 10 and 30 degrees should work. I also use this technique to get chips out of a socket completely. I have never pulled a chip from a chip puller without bending leads ;) -joe -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
