Re question on how to fix a heatsink to a chip:

You can buy special glue to do this. Places to try: Electromail; Maplin.

I f I had to do the job, that's what I'd use; if it weren't available I'd
follow the superglue + heatsink compound doughnut idea.

(By the way, I think of Loctite as a weak adhesive to keep nuts and bolts 
tight but removable, which is what it was before they started making all 
sorts of adhesives under their brand. I think the Loctite suggestion 
probably meant cyanoacrylate superglue.)

HTH,
