How hard is it to change the processor on a 770?

I took off the palmrest/keyboard but wasn't quite sure how to remove the metal shield beneath that. I assumed the processor is on top and not on the bottom...

If you need the manual to disassemble your lappy look at this FAQ.

And just so you know, there is a fair amount of disassembly involved in replacing a 770 series CPU. An inexperienced person can do it, but you have to be patient and careful. I would set aside 2-3 hours if you've never done it before.
