    I looked everywhere and I can't find any help with disassembling a G72. I used a G73 guide to figure out how to get the keyboard off, and I've got all the screws in the base out and the touchpad/palm rest almost completely off, and even the front bezel of the display off, but I can't figure out where to go from here.

    I need to extract the motherboard from this laptop and I just need to figure out how to get the display hinge screws exposed without breaking anything. Can somebody out there direct me to a disassembly guide? If I can get past this part and still no guide, I'm going to make my own guide while I'm reassembling it.

    If no other guide is out there, can somebody tell me how to get the display off from the base of a G72?
