I don't know whether this is much help because I haven't got that make but
sometimes manufacturers have a habit of 'hiding' some screws under rubber
feet/non slip pads try removing these carefully (they should be just held in
place with glue or heavy duty double sided tape) and see if you can find
more screws. They might also be under labels (showing serial number etc..)
on the underside of the laptop as well.

The other case of course could be that you have indeed removed enough screws
but the keyboard might also be held in with little lugs of plastic which if
you are careful can be prized apart using your fingernails only (don't use a
screwdriver otherwise you might damage the casing or keyboard)

Hope this has been a little help.
