I'd just use a little bit of superglue to stick that heatsink back on.

Oh, God, don't use superglue!!!! When superglue cures it gives off fumes, it can cause damage to electro-mechanical devices... i.e. bye-bye floppy drive.. There are other issues too....

To re-attatch the heatsink best to use thermal paste and some  type of clip, etc. like it's meant to have....

lorddef: OK, fine. Sorry if my post was over the top. But, I was only trying to help someone to Not ruin an Amiga. Super Glue vapors will freeze motors, especially in an enclosed/semi-enclosed space. So there  :-P
