Well, stupid question, I was going to clean the monitor and plastic bezel inside and out. I figured all I'd had to do was unlatch the CP and slide the bezel out, but it's in a channel with what looks to be a plastic lip that would allow you to lift it up and slide it outwards, however when I attempt to lift it, it seems to be jammed from above.
I figured there must be something up on the plastic bracket from above that's preventing it's movement so I unscrew about 4 screws - still nothing. Ok, so I unscrew the bottom of the marquee bracket - won't budge. So I unscrew the top marquee bracket, remove the marquee. Now wait a minute. It can't be this hard to remove a plastic bezel for cleaning.
I looked inside the cabinet and there's no magic pull bars. What gives with taking this bezel out?
I tried some google searches and ended up with alot of references to Windows Defender.
 
At the top of the Defender bezel, there is a curved piece that has screws holding it to the bottom of the speaker shelf. Remove those screws, then you can pull the top (with that curved piece attached to the bezel) towards you. Get it out a bit, then lift the bezel up out of the bottom channel and take it out....
 
Thanks, I managed to get it cleaned up, get the bezel back in then got that annoying right half of screen all blue again. Lost a ground somewhere?
