    I am looking for a (well illustrated) guide to how to take apart a Vaio SZ120PB (or any model in this series.) I need to remove the keyboard and reinsert the left panel of the case (the part that has the Memory Stick slot in it), which mysteriously popped out and I cannot re-insert it by simply pushing in. I am afraid to break something if I force it, and there appear to be some latched beneath the keyboard that must lock with the side panel.
    Also, does anybody have any idea why my laptop suddenly stopped recognizing blank CD's or read DVD's (it still reads regular data or music CD's)? I have not installed or deleted anything, it just happened suddenly.
