Altering a 771 CPU for a 775 socket
My overall opinion is an excellent grade for this product. While it takes some patients (and a magnifier helps), to separate the sticker from its die cut form (as received), to the installation onto the CPU. Before any attempt was made I used double sided tape to hold the CPU steady on the table. I then washed down the back of the CPU with alcohol, and thoroughly washed my hands before application. Once applied, it stayed where it was suppose to be, with a fair amount of handling to boot. I chose to alter the CPU and not gouge out the socket. To do this I mounted a small diamond grit bit in my Dremel motor tool, which itself was mounted in the Dremel drill press stand. Using double sided tape and a scrap of wood as a fence. I gauged the distance required using an old 775 CPU, then I pressed the fence down to hold it in place. I put electrical tape on top of the CPU for scratch protection, and then slowly nibbled away the new clearance slots. Worked like a charm, without needing to alter the socket. End result is a very satisfied customer with an extremely fast computer.
