    Anybody have a video, pics or advice on how to remove the LCD -- I can only get to the bottom two screws and the broken LCD is not loose. Are there upper screws hidden somewhere, or is the whole thing adhesived in there?

    Brad,
    I have been seaching franticly for a replacement screen myself. When taking the laptop apart and coming to the screen removal from the lid, I got really nervous. I could not find anything online concerning removing it, including the referred manual that was suggested in response to your question. So....trial and error showed me that the key to removing it is the tabs that are holding the screen in that is around the entire outside of the lid. Just be gentle and it will come out. I hope that helps.
