    I have a Samsung NP370R5E but cannot figure out how to replace the screen. I have removed what I thought to be two screw covers in the top left and right corners on the front bezel but there doesn't appear to screws behind them and there are no other screw covers. The below link shows the laptop. Do I need to open the whole case to sort this out? Assistance very welcome

    Many of the newer notebooks use glued bezels because there is not enough thickness for screws.

    However, I don't know the best way to remove the bezel. Perhaps a heat gun would soften the glue sufficient for the bezel to be removed and reused.
