Please Help: I'm a newbie at replacing DMD's and I can't seem to remove my original TZ screen. I've taken off the 4 little nuts at the corners and there doesn't appear to be anything else connecting the screen to the panel. However, the original screen won't lift off. It seems like if I were to pull any harder on the circuit board, it'll flex and break! It's not budging from the panel - almost as if the face is glued down. What am I missing? Thanks for any input!

It should just come off after you remove those screws it’s very simple.

Been on there for 26 years. Probably stuck to the foam rubber around it.

it’s binding on the bolts. flex them inward (or outward, as needed) as you pull up on the screen.

It worked! I just needed to apply more pressure. I was just afraid of it snapping but all's well - THANKS!!
