RE: [OT] Sony Vaio VGN-A service manual

I've got the A197VP... Excellent screen....

Chances are the hdd is under the keyboard and there will be screws on the
underside to release the whole keyboard probably around 5 or 6 of them.
There'll probably be a small ribbon cable which come from the keyboard and
plugs into one of those little flat connector thingies...

Depends on whether you have your Stetson hat and spurs handy.....or how
brave you are....

I have the same laptop here - lovely bit of kit but heavy as hell and crap
battery life given the weight...

...also finding that the finish isn't very durable. The left "mouse
button"
on my touchpad has a white patch on it where the silver finish has been
worn away and the same on the front-right-hand-corner of the screen lid.
