If it's the full, original SECC1 Slot 1, then there are two tabs at the top of the processor cartridge. Push them in, and then lift vertically.

If it's the slightly odd-shaped SECC2 (you can tell because the back plate does not fully wrap the processor), then you push the tabs in on the two rentention stands and then lift the processor vertically.

I've seen some where you have to turn two screws at the base to loosen the retention mechanism.
