The keyboard on the 1710 should not be held on by screws on the
underside
First unscrew the keyboard holder, a long piece of plastic at the top
of the keyboard. It should be held by 2 black screws. Carefully lever
it up from either end....it has latches.  Now you should see 4 black
screws  at the top of the keyboard. Remove these, then carefully ease
the keyboard forward over the (protected) lcd until the ribbon
connector is visible at the lower centre. Remove the ribbon and that's
it!
