Next, remove the screws circled in blue from the bottom of the screen. There are two on each side (right/left) of the XO, so make sure to get all four. |

Next, carefully slide the screen out, pulling the bottom out. Do not tug it or let go, as it will still be connected to the motherboard by two cables. |
