    Hey Guys! I am working on a PCG-R505TE laptop and can't seem to figure out how to get access to the CPU cooling fan. It is making noises as though the bearings are bad. I removed the front panel that contains the mouse pad, removed the hard drive, the keyboard, and the covers on the hinges to the lcd screen. I can't seem to find any additional screws. I figure that the screen probably has to come off next but I'm not sure. Any advice would be great. The service manual itself would be best!

    Thanks,
    Al
