I recently had to clean thermal grease off my Core 2 Duo & heatsink. I used a damp paper towel to get most of it off (there's still a few smudges, but whatever). I never had to do that before, but due to me needing to get a new motherboard, it was required.
I just want to know, for future reference, the safest way to remove thermal grease from the CPU without screwing yourself over (water inside the chip and whatnot). Actually, I've yet to test to see if my Core 2 Duo even works after that. <_<
Thoughts?
