    Although I read the post by ITdmax who explained nicely what he did, I can’t remove the MB on my Asus X750 Laptop

    As per attached picture, I have removed all 17 screws holding the MB down but it will not move, feels like there are more screws.

    I’m thinking if under the aluminum foil (at the left and below the fan) perhaps there are more screws?

    This aluminum foil looks like that it’s glued to the MB and I don’t want to remove it unless someone else has done it

    Any ideas?

    I found the problem; it was 2 screws one hidden under a black tape at the front left where the lights are and the other one at the fan. This one was visible but I thought the fan was separate from the MB which is not true
