    Hi, my Clevo M570U's keyboard wasn't installed correctly, ie its rather uneven, on side is clicked in the other isn't, so I was wondering where I can find the instructions on how to remove and reinstall the keyboard. I looked at Clevo's website but they don't have anything pretaning to that.

    Make sure the system is off. Not plugged into AC. Remove battery for precautions.

    Its simple for Clevo keyboards. All you need is a basic (small) flat-head screwdriver.
    There are 4 pieces of retractable plastic holding down the keyboard.
    Look at the picture that I have attached.
    Just push the plastic pieces gently upward (toward the lcd screen) which would retract them to release that part of the keyboard. This should only take less than 30 seconds.

    After the keyboard is released, you will find a cable under it (connects to motherboard), you can remove it if you want, just remember its position.

    Thats it.
