Then I can usually pull the other side off by hand (if not stick the screwdriver in the other side to pop it). Now you see the actual slot processor, but the heatsink is still attached to the other side. There are two metal clips on the side you're viewing that hold the heatsink in place:





Pop those metal clips and the heatsink will come off.

There are no gold fingers on the slot processor pictured above. This was one I had already removed from the housing and cut the fingers off. I put it back together to take the pictures.

There are other slot processor styles that hold them together, but all are on the same basic principle.
Not what I was thinking then, but thanks for the pictures, for when I do come across them!
