its quite a pain the first few times. try to pop one of the bottom corners first and just wiggle and pull . I was expecting mine to break the first time it was so tough, but it came off cleanly.

just go slow and look for the shortest, cleanest way of doing it.
as for tips, its kinda hard since every motherboard is different, but on the bottom of the mobo tray right at the edge of the mobo there is that little slot if you take your time you can push all the front header wires in that if its close to where they plug in.

if you look closely you can see kinda were im talking about.(from the link in my sig)

But look at the OP. The instructions on how to be added don't really stand out; they blend right in. Then if you scroll a little further down, then there's a picture. This is about where people stop reading and just look at the pretty pictures.

So, I think that the instructions should be the first thing in the OP. Not only that, but it should be something that really sticks out.

But if you're thinking that I'm unaware that people come directly to the first page, then I will tell you now that I am fully aware of it. But not everyone goes directly to the last page. Many also look at the first post. But when I look at the first post, it's not immediately obvious to me where the instructions are until I scroll down a little bit. But when I scroll down a little, I see a picture. It's also a very distracting picture (which is quite a compliment to iandroo's work).

So, I'll say it again: I do feel that the OP could be improved to reduce the number of people who have seen the OP but still don't know how to be added.

Done. xD and very much yes, busier than a cat on a tin roof. Try 5 upper division science classes + 2 labs + being on the appointed board of a student community service organization.

I have not lapped it or my cpu. My cpu sometimes will sit a degree or so lower than my chipset. Average IDLE/Browsing temp is about 26-35*C. works just fine for this lower end chip I got. TX3 is A-oK for me.

So is the Eternity Edition just a fancy combination of the current Windows 7 and the way Vista was originally going to be? I saw some references to Longhorn.
