Literally take off the heatsink and fan, unclip the metal bar on one side (depending on processor) and lift off. You might want to invest in some anti-static gear to stop you fouling the electronics up. What processor are you going from and whats the new one?

You need to find out what cpu's your motherboard will support before you buy one.

Make sure you can use your old stuff too like sound card, graphics card and RAM in new motherboard.
