This is a guide on replacing a screen on an Acer Aspire 5

For the replacement process we will need a plastic pick and a Phillips screwdriver.

To begin turn the laptop off.

Start by removing the bezel. Insert a plastic pick between the bezel and the LCD.
Move it along the left side. Insert the plastic between the bezel and the back cover
move it along the perimeter. Release the bezel at the bottom of the screen.
Put it aside.

Using a Phillips screwdriver remove four screws holding the screen.
Place the screen on the keyboard. Peel off the clear tape securing the video connector.
Using both hands disconnect the video cable and discard the old screen.

Place the new screen on the keyboard. And using both hands gently reconnect the video cable. Secure it with
clear tape.

CAUTION! It is very important not to force any connectors. Also
make sure not to twist or slant the connector when plugging it in.

Now we can test the screen. Lift the screen up and lean it against the back cover.
Turn the laptop on. The screen is working and we can finish the installation process.

Replace four Phillips screws in the corners.
(Stich appears on the video, may be we can somehow mention it in the audio)
Remove protective film.

Replace the bezel. Start from the bottom and then go around the perimeter
snapping tabs back in place. Close the laptop and make sure the bezel is in
place in the bottom.

Turn the laptop on and we are done!
