I have a compunurse probe and tried tapeing it to my cpu
at first, but found that it was preventing the
heatsink from seating properly.
I put the heatsink on first, then with a flashlight &
a small mirror I could see the gap between the cpu
& hsf. I could see where the core was and slipped
the probe in the gap. It went in easily. I then taped
the wire, with reinforced packaging tape, to the motherboard
with just a small bend in the wire right by the
heatsink to keep it in place.
Hope this helps.....
