Unscrew the three evenly-spaced Phillips screws from along the rear wall of the battery compartment.

Remove the following 3 screws:

Remove the following 4 screws from the back of the computer:

The longer screws go on the inside, shorter screws on the outside.

While holding up the upper case, pull up the black tab of the silver cable away from its connector.

While you have the upper case removed, you may want to take the opportunity to remove dust, hair, etc. It's best to use a can of compressed air, though if you use a brush, make sure that its bristles are made of a material (usually animal hair) that doesn't generate static electricity, which can destroy electronics.
