Looks to me like you have already removed thge heatsink and removed the processor? What is the problem exactly?
 
o those pics werent of my comp. i got them from the internet. those pics were just as sources. i need to figure out how to remove it. there are two screws on the side. after u take them out u cant simply pull out the black box. u gotta remove it in a certain way. the manual confused me.
