    Hi all,

    I am replacing a broken screen on an Acer Aspire One netbook Model no. KAV60 D250 and Im stuck with getting the bottom 2 screws out. The top 2 screws were behind rubber grommets that were easily pryed off, but the bottom 2 dont have the grommets. If I put a screwdriver against them with force, they do seem to move a bit but I cant pry them off as such. They basically sit flush with the rest of the bezel, but are square that are slightly indented. I have also tried scratching the paint off to see if the screws were just painted over with no luck and now have made a mess of it! I have the bezel almost removed, with the exception of the bottom 2 points. Does anyone know how to get at them?

    Here are some pictures I have uploaded to try and show what I mean. The pictures aren't great quality and the laptop is very reflective, so it is hard to show exactly what I mean but hopefully you will see.
