Can you remove them? I have access to a P4 2.4b but the damn heatsink doesnt budge. It doesnt seem like i can take it off so i can put it back on. Any guides? Tips? Can it be done?

Knowing Dell, chances are that taking it off would be kind risky. Dell doesn't want you upgrading processors. They want you to get a new PC.
