Gateway Solo 9300 keyboard removal

[Guest]

Does anyone know the proceedure for removing the keyboard on a solo 9300. I want to upgrade the processor and as far as I can tell, the keyboard is the first component that needs to be removed. All help appreciated.

To all who may be looking for an answer to this same problem, I found the solution.
there are five tabs at the lower edge of the keyboard that hold the keyboard into the laptop chassis. To move the tabs in and out of the locked position, look between the right arrow and down arrow keys. You will see a silver strip about 4mm long. Using a small jewelers screwdriver, you can slide the tab in and out using the small sheet metal edge located in this small slot. To get to the other 4 tabs, (starting from the left)look between the function key and the Ctrl key, between the left alt key and the space bar, between the space bar and the right alt key and finally between the windows key and the menu key.
