    The lower two orange screws are definitely not 11mm - that would prevent the keyboard re-seating, as I discovered.

    I suggest 5.5mm. A cover is shown between them; - my R940 (and virtually identical R840) has lost that.

    Underneath it is a docking connector.

    I have a working R940 & R840, but also a few other R840 in only slight distress (screen hinge screws, a couple missing SATA connector).

    So while I might not be able to tell now where those misplaced 11mm screws should go, I will be able to inspect the other untouched ones, and update this note.

    • Turn the computer over again and press down on the metal notch. This will push the keyboard out of its place.

    • Once you can get a firm grasp on the keyboard make small motions side to side and pull it out of place.

    • The top and right side of the keyboard should be out when you grab it, so to slide it out pull in the direction away from the lower left corner.

    • Make sure not to pull to hard as there is one last connection under the keyboard that could be severed.

To replace the keyboard you only need to remove one screw (marked KB) on the underside of the laptop. The keyboard can then be easily removed by taking off the plastic bezel by the top row of keys and unclipping from there. Literally a 5 minute job without the need to fully disassemble.
