Default Instructions - terrible

Those instructions that come with the A64 are not good at all. I don't
understand what it means by cam, lug, and all of that garbage. Can anyone
help? On top of that, do you have to open the clips a little bit to get the
heatsink to rest on-top of the CPU because the heatsink for this one won't
fit unless I open the clips a little bit.

Never mind... the installation was much easier than the instructions made
it look.

There's videos of how to do it on www.amd.com.

Did you try looking at the pictures? My CPU had an instruction sheet
that has pictures and the manual for my motherboard also has pictures.
I thought they were very clear and concise on how to mount the CPU and
the heatsink & fan.
