      You don't need a screwdriver for desktop heatsinks... For laptop heatsinks there usually are not more than 10 screws holding it down..

      and being as you've given very little information to go on, all people will do is make guesses and assumptions. I suggest giving more specific information (maybe even read the forum rules). You could also tell us what your problem is.

      I guess you could put one of your fingers in an automated pencil sharpener until it starts to look like a screwdriver?

      I guess he means to press down the clip... I have used a ruler for this.

      That's not a bad idea.

      I once jammed a screwdriver into an elco while trying to remove one of those AMD coolers when I slipped.
