I have a Fujitsu Amilio. over the past year or so there is a slight
stiffness when putting down the screen. I haven't used it for a few
months and when I did, it was VERY stiff. So much that its beginning
to crack the case. I want to sort this out rather than leave it until
the screen get broken. I have removed the cover over the hinges and
can unscrew the 3 screws for each hinge and remove the screen from the
case if I want to but I don't want to disconnect the screen. I cannot
find a way of removing the hinge from the screen. taking off both
hinges completely would allow me the either get replacements or free
the hinges without damaging anything. So how to do it?

Any suggestions or links would be greatly appreciated
