How do I get the back off my polaroid lcd tv?

I have loosened 3 screw which is all I can find. It is a 15.4" lcd hd ready model. The model number is TLU-01541CU although I can't find it on any websites. I think there is a fault on the power supply but can't get into it!

Not just the screws on the boards, around the sockets from the back, are some bolts etc. need to take them off to remove boards.
Might not see anything, Thats why I came here now. to ask about similar problem. backlight goes off after about 15 secs or so. Need cct diag.

The back is hard to remove. After removing the three screws you have to pry the side inward as easy as you can to free the little rectangular snaps from the side and pry in and then up to free it. all around. I managed to break several of these little plastic rectangular loops, but doesn't matter as the three screws are sufficient to hold the halves together.

The problem I had was after freeing the encased pc board unit, unplugging all the wire plugs and opening up to where the bottoms of the pc boards were visable I couldn't after removing all screws on them, I could not pull the pc boards loose to get to the component side. I reassembled everything and the tv worked fine for about 6 hours and then went black again. A definate power inverter to backlight problem.When it cools it resets but only for a few moments and blacks out again. I need to know how to get the boards free to examine the components.
