removing stock intel 478 HSF
I'm looking for directions on how to remove the stock HSF from a P4 socket 478. There are two levers which I unlkatched. The HSF doesn't lift off. What else do I need to do?
The stock 478 HSF is a %!#& to get off, I ripped my P4 2.6 out of the socket trying. See this guide:

you have to unhook the 4 retainer clips from the sides of the heatsink, and like Mike says, the stock TIM can set hard like a rock.
