I have a processor---think it's a core 2 duo that was damaged and replaced. Anyway I want to crack open the case to see inside of it, but can't figure out how. I've tried prying the back off with a knife but it won't budge. Does anyone know how Intel affixes the metal part onto the green circuit board, or any good ideas on how to remove it.
