I have an Abit IP-35 Pro motherboard, and an Intel E6600 installed.
Yesterday, I removed the stock HSF to replace it with an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7.
While removing the existing thermal compound, a small amount got dropped in to the ZIF socket for the CPU.
Anybody got any ideas on how to get it out? its not electrically conductive so thats not a worry, but it does make a mess. The pins in the socket are very fine a delicate.
TIA!
