Hi! I need help! I'm trying to get the motherboard out, but I just can't do it! On step 15

It says : Remove two screws securing the modem card. Carefully lift the modem card of the system board.
Disconnect the modem cable.
Remove four screws securing the hard drive housing.
Remove the housing.
The housing for my hard drive has no screws? There's a white paper that covers the hard drive, but there are no screws directly on the hard drive. I already removed the two outer screws that are connected to the motherboard, but I don't know how to get the housing off. Here's a quick snapshot of what my housing looks like right now. If you noticed, compared to this pic:

This begs the question: why?. Why do you wish to remove the motherboard?
If you're doing an upgrade, from my own experience, people shouldn't do it if they need to read a step-by-step guide (i.e. little or no experience). -
I am removing the motherboard so that I can re-solder the ACJACK back in.

You do realize that the problem is that you haven't removed the hard drive, don't you? It should be clearer in Step 2, but you are supposed to remove the hard drive completely. The screws are under it.
Disassemble Toshiba M35X -- Now I'm stuck!
