Make sure you have a static bracelet to ground yourself, make sure it is completely unplugged, and remove the battery as well.

>static bracelet to ground yourself
You're scaring me bruh, what if I don't have one? Touching metal would be enough?

You run the risk of a discharge of static electricity, which is guaranteed to destroy any parts you touch.

I disassembled a lot of electronic devices, I never used the bracelet and everything went always fine. However, >>239663 is right, wearing the bracelet gives you extra safety.

>Something I should be extremely careful with besides the screws?
Yeah, keep in mind that if you want to remove the heatsink you'll end up tearing off the old thermal paste, so you'll need to buy and apply a fresh one before reassembling (which is not a bad thing if the computer is old).

Also, a pro tip for the screws, take a photo of the assembled board before removing them, so you'll know exactly where to put em when reassembling.

Beware of carpets and wear something cotton as a shirt. Reduce static build up
