+ Remove those screws and remove the HDD:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0001.JPG" alt="" /> <img src="t60_dev/0002.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Lift off the palm rest:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0003.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Lift up the keyboard, pull it back a bit, flip it over like that and then disconnect it from the board:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0004.JPG" alt="" /> <img src="t60_dev/0005.JPG" alt="" /> <img src="t60_dev/0006.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Gently wedge both sides loose:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0007.JPG" alt="" /> <img src="t60_dev/0008.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Remove that cable from the position:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0009.JPG" alt="" /> <img src="t60_dev/0010.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Remove the bezel (sorry forgot to take pics).
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ On the CPU (and there is another chip south-east to it, sorry forgot to take pic)
+ clean off the old thermal paste (rubbing a1ocheal (misspelling intentional. halal internet)) and apply new (Artic Silver 5 is good, others are good too)
+ you should also clean the heatsink the same way<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0051.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ This is also an opportunity to change the CPU to another one. For example if you had a Core Duo T2400, you can upgrade it to a better processor
+ (higher speed, 64-bit support). A Core 2 Duo T7600 was installed here.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Attach the heatsink and install the screws (also, make sure to install the AC jack as highlighted):<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0052.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Reinstall that upper bezel:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0053.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Do that:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0054.JPG" alt="" /> <img src="t60_dev/0055.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Attach keyboard:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0056.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Place keyboard and (sorry, forgot to take pics) reinstall the palmrest and insert screws on the underside:<br/>
+ <img src="t60_dev/0058.JPG" alt="" />
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ It lives!<br/>

+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ Always stress test ('stress -c 2' and xsensors. below 90C is ok) when replacing cpu paste/heatsink:<br/>
