I have to pull an 060 from my Cyberstorm MK III and I know they are very sensitive and your not suppose to use a screw driver.
What do I need and how should I do it?
Thanks,
Matt

i know your not supposed to use a screwdriver,but the extraction tools are very expensive.
this is how i do it,i get the flat blade screwdriver and gently pry it out(without twisting the driver) starting on one side lift it a bit and goto the oppisite side and lift it a bit and just repeat until its out.
dont be tempted to pull it out the rest of the way by hand(its very tempting when its halfway as itll be loose) the socket is solder to the surface of the pcb(not through hole),and it might put stress on the joints.

I'd ask Stachu100/Stan, as he does this all the time.
Great idea I will pm him.
Thanks!
