  • Pull down the laptop's back; the screen should be left upright, held in place by two metal strips going along its sides.

  • On either side of these strips there will be two screws. Unscrew them on both sides. While unscrewing the screws on the second side, make sure to hold the screen so that it doesn't fall when the screws are removed.
