    I'm trying to dissassemble the keyboard from an ASUS G50VT-X1 laptop. I noticed a few plastic clips (~4) on side close to the monitor. Pushing them in does not release the keyboard though. I don't want to break my notebook by using too much force.

    Any tips on gett the keyboard off?

    Thanks,

    Asus notebooks generally have a screw or two holding it in. Look on the underside for any hole with K next to it for the screw, then pop the retainer clips and you should be able to remove the keyboard.
