Remove DangerDen TDX Metal Backplate From Motherboard

I have a DangerDen TDX for my Athlon FX-62, and I'm wanting to use it on my new Phenom system. However I need the metal backplate, and it's stuck rather firmly to the back of the current motherboard.

How do I remove this backplate?
 
isopropyl alcohol, heat, or a screwdriver. The backplates are a @#$%& to get off. Next time, stick a piece of cardboard between the motherboard and backplate instead of sticking it on.
 
I had to go with the screwdriver method. I used a towel to keep from doing any damage to the mobo, but still put a couple marks on it.

Unfortunately I didn't build this rig. I won it at a LAN party. If I had built it, oh it would have had something non-adhesive.

Thanks.
