2.Open the display and stand the computer on its side. Insert a small screwdriver through the keyboard access hole in the bottom of the computer. (The keyboard access hole is the same hole from which the keyboard screw was removed.) Push firmly on the bottom of the keyboard until it is disengaged.

NOTE: When the computer is standing on its side, the hard drive assembly may come out of its bay still cabled to the computer. After disengaging the keyboard, reseat the hard drive assembly as necessary prior to the next step.

3.Position the computer display-side up, with the front toward you, and open the computer as far as possible. Lift the rear edge of the keyboard and tilt the keyboard forward onto the palm rest.
