I agree!!
I have an AMILO XA1526 and i took EVERYTHING apart including the screen and i still cant get the thing apart. ARGH! how do i replace the DVD i have exsactly the same model optiarc as it should have (strangely enough my new optiard dvd writer is only DVD +R but the original was + and - R??)
OPTIARC AD-7540A
So i spoke with FUJITSU SEIMENS and they said:
"There are no public disassembly instructions available for the Amilo laptops, to remove the DVDRW drive you need to ensure the base screws are removed and you may want to have the accessory panel underneath remove to allow you to slide the drive out."
Well i really butchered my beloved amilo xa to try change the drive which went faulty after 3 months (i had the entire motherboard replaced under warranty but missd the dvd drive issue)
So how do i change my drive?? I really want my amilo back in working order. If i had known the difficulty taking it apart i woulda just got a new harddisk instead.
Please, someone, anyone, HEKP!!
