      • Remove six Philips #2 screws from the bottom of the case.

      • REASSEMBLY CAUTION: To prevent thread stripping during reassembly, turn screws backwards slowly until you feel the screw thread drop into the original plastic thread, and only then, tighten screw normally but lightly - you're working with 20+ year-old plastics.

    2. Top Cover, Disconnect top cover ribbon cable: crwdns2935265:02crwdnd2935265:01crwdnd2935265:01crwdne2935265:0
      • Carefully fold the top and bottom open, revealing a ribbon cable connecting the two halves.

      • Unlock and disconnect the ribbon cable. Unlock by pulling the lock lever evenly on both sides, parallel to the board surface (not lift/pivot), in the direction of the ribbon cable.

      • When this ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) connector is properly unlocked, the ribbon cable should just fall right out of the socket (no need to pull with any strength).
