750 degrees...thats farenhieght right? I'm used to working in celcius so that sounds rather too warm lol

Do you have a solder sucker/ desoldering pump handy? they're very useful for removing anything with more than a few legs - especially if alot of solder has been used, have you tinned your iron (applied a small amount of fresh solder to the end after cleaning)...are you using a round tip or a flat one..... i find the small flat tips are alot better but thats personal preferance really
