    Hi all, I have an Asus F3Jp notebook and removing the keyboard is proving to be difficult. I managed to find one screw holding the keyboard in place, but it seems there's a second one and I have no idea where it is. Has anyone here tried taking a keyboard off a F3Jp? Maybe someone has a link to a guide or at least the screw location (god I hope it's not under the motherboard).

    I managed to find a photo of the back-side of the keyboard, and it does have two screw-holder-like things. I tried to zero on the one I've missed but where I figure it should be there's the mini-pcie card slot (and the screw's not under the card either).

    As far as I can tell it's the same keyboard as in other F3 models and possibly also F2 and T11.

    *SOLVED* Visited a nearby laptop store and the guy phoned his asus technician buddy. The other screw is in the cpu/gpu fan housing, labeled by a faint K in the metal housing part.
