Hi Doug,

"...on my p.c. the original retainer clips had nothing to latch on
to,as the plastic `slots` on heatsink base had broken off." I have
same problem.

"I made up *`L` *shaped brackets 25mm.by 25mm with 6mm hole drilled
each end,removed 4 screws and lifted off heatsink base,slid homebrew
clips under the base, refit h.sink base with the screws passing thru`
the holes in the homemade clips.This now gave the original spring
clamps somewhere to hook on to ! * *Hope you can follow this Ken *!
Am not sure how to include a piccy with this post, or would have taken
snap with digi.cam. * Still learning here ! !" Me too!! but photos do
help!!

"Most frequently just plop a photo on someplace like photobucket and
give a link. Pick a place that has rules you like." How does that
sound to you?

Thanks again for all your help!

Ken
