How do you do it and raise vertically? If you pry from side to side it forces you to bend the metal prongs on the eprom slightly left to right. even if you do it very gently and in small adjustments.

You know what im talking about?

Also, how do you do it without damaging the mother board?

do you place a cloth down and pry from that? So that it wont dig into the board or the fragile pcb lines that pass directly under neath the eprom.

The factory eprom is in there pretty good when it has never been removed before and its easy to damage the mother board. especially for the less experienced.

What technique do you use to do it safely?

Thanks.

you do NOT turn the screw driver

you "pry" it up in the middle slightly, then move to the other side, back in forth until the eeprom is high enough to get out.

it is easier if you have a small screwdriver, and you put a bend in it ( like an L ) and then its easier to pry it out.
