Well, my Inspiron 5150 has blown yet another LCD.. that makes two in one year. I want to open up my laptop to take a can of air to the inside of it, since it's starting to get a little dusty.

I also want to see if the monitor cable is even fully plugged in, or I'd like to try replugging it in.

At any rate, I removed all the screws to the thing, but the back end (near the screen) will not come off, even though there are no more screws to take out. Is there a way I can take the full bottom off?

Here is a pic of the inspiron style

The laptops about 18 months old, if that helps. Thanks for any help!
