Maintenance of a laptop MSI E7235

[AtosCoder]

I have a old laptop that has 3 keys that are not working, so I'm trying to open it to see if I can figure out why they are just not responding. The Keys are the main enter key, the \ key and the backspace key, so if you see in your keyboard you can notice all 3 keys are next to each other and every thing else seems to be working properly. With those keys busted the only way I can even log in the laptop is with windows's on screen keyboard. 

 

But the real problem is I cant open the thing. I removed every single screw I can see and I can't figure out how to open it. It's been ages since I work on a laptop but I remember they used to be easier to open and get to the guts. So if anyone knows a trick or tips on figuring out how to open it to try to do maintenance to the keyboard, please let me know. 

 

I tried to remove the key-caps too but that is a bust they are held in by so many things I don't want to break them. :unsure:

 

Anyone? :wacko:

Yeah you're in a bit of a pickle with a laptop. Contact MSI support and tell them about it, in the mean time use an external keyboard. If it's a machine you take around with you that kind of sucks. I personally wouldn't try to mess around with the laptop for fear of voiding the warranty.

Like mariohead123 said, you may screw up your warranty.
But, if you do not feel like waiting 3 months for a returned system from msi, most laptops today have little clips on the keyboard, that can be popped from the top.
There are many many fine "zero insertion force" cables under there, so be very careful.
