I had to reseat the northbridge HSF last night on a computer that I built for a friend. One of the hoops that the bar that holds down the HSF hooks onto came off. It is the newer style tall HSF not the old short squat one like the one that is on my board. I had to bend the bar a bit to have it hook into the other hoops. It was a pain in the ass.

Anyone else had this problem? I am just glad it happened to a friend who's computer I didnt make any money off of and not one of my customers.
 
It happened to my IS7 board. I just replaced the stock northbridge hs with a Zalman passive one. I thermal glued it on.
