    That video might give some advice. The one bracket is a real (insert any banned word here) to remove and put back. You'll know what I mean afterwards.

    Thanks for the answer. If you take a closer look you'll see that the mainboard is screwed to the upper cover. I need to remove mainboard in order to replace it. Somewhere there is a screw that i cant find.

    That model is one of the worst when motherboard needs to be replaced. I've done that way too many times in the past years :) However I can't remember if there was some tricky screw somewhere... check under tapes and foil. Maybe, if you can wiggle the motherboard sideways just a little bit, then you could see the fixed point.
