Dudes, please help me out on this one. My CPU core is fused to the heatsink ! ![Eek! :eek: :eek:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I have a P4 (Dell Inspiron 5160) Laptop. I recently bought arctic silver 5 thermal grease to put on my heatsink. My fan was running a lot and the system was getting heated up a little. So today, when I removed everything and pulled the heatsink out, the CPU core came along with it.

Its completely fused to the heatsink. I dont know what to do?
I replaced it back into the enclosure without breaking any pins on the CPU core (Thank God for that). The system is working at the moment but I dont know how to separate the core from the heatsink.
Any ideas?
