lol I just came back to report what came to me in my sleep.....
the arctic silver comes offeasy enough, of course the blue thermal pad is gone and a shiny piece of copper is in its place! Think theyll notice lol?

I've just completed this mod and my worst nightmare has come true...the notebook wont turn back on. I've retraced my steps and made sure that all of my connections are secure. I am at a total loss! Any help or suggestions would be MUCH...
Has anyone tried this mod for their 9600?:

Just curious about y'alls results
EE or not, for 4k he has a right to PERSONALIZED support....Dell has the worst customer support and we all know it It's a shame for sucha great product line.
