Hello, I'm currently stuck on hold with Compaq Tech Support, so I'm wondering if anyone here off hand knows the answer.

The Compaq 2700 has a known problem with overheating. Compaq offers a part (302005-001) for $53 (yuck) which fixes a problem with the heat sink mounts for the CPU breaking and causing the heatsink to separate.

The laptop in question is under one of the "comprehensive" warranty plans Compaq offers. My question, would it void that warranty if I install this kit by myself? Would I have to have it serviced by "authorized" Compaq support so as not to void the warranty?

Thanks.
