SO my gf's comp is all of the sudden heating up. THE CPU, HD snd GPU sre gettign higher temps than normal. Nothing in the computer had changed lately.
AMD sthlon 64 x2 3600+, 250gb WD HD, Stock HSF, Corsair 450vx.

She bought this thing at best buy last year, I am trying to take the HSF off so i can clean and apply some TX-2 but im having issues taking the Heatsink off. I take the fan off, then the brace that hold the HSF onto the plactic around the bottom of the HSF, i unscrewed the back plate of the black plastic. To the eye, nothing is holding the HSF on. I'm lost, i've never taken apart this kind of socket B4,
 
I'll take one when i get some. I feel so retarded because lookign at it, nothing is holding it on, but if trying to pull it off gives nothing.
