Is there a Razer Blade disassembly guide?

Not sure if this is your model or not; seems to be about the same year. Check out this video. A common issue has been a swollen battery, although this battery design doesn’t look like it would interfere with the touchpad if it was swollen, but you never know until you open it. A swollen battery will look like a pillow. If this is the case, you will need to replace the battery.

Yeah I got as far as lifting the battery up. Battery is fine.

But below the battery there are data belts covering the touchpad area, and it looks like it might be necessary to remove the whole motherboard to get to the touchpad completely. That video is just the surface…

Thanks though
