    • With all the screws removed from the previous guides. Remove the final eight M2.5X5 mm Philips screws on the back of the laptop

    STOP: Insert STEP here: The keyboard screws must be removed before the keyboard can be removed. They are located on the —->front side of the battery housing and between the RAM and wifi antenna housing. This MISSING CRUCIAL STEP almost cost me my laptop.
