    I want to upgrade Asus U36SD to SDD drive and for that I need to open it up and to remove the keyboard. There are many instructions in the internet on how to open it by unscrewing 10 screws, detaching 2 cables and then removing keyboard and replacing the SSD.

    But no instruction mention that keyboard is glued to a couple of components on the motherboard and when I try to remove it I can't pull it up.

    Question:
    1. Is it possible to detach keyboard form these components and how? I see reports like that one below that careless ungluing may be caused some problems with laptop afterwards.

    Any help will be appreciated.
