How to remove MSI GX640 fan?

Hi,



I've bought some thermal paste (Artic MX-4) and I don't know how to put it on my laptop... I can't remove the fan!!!



At first I removed the pannel, I removed the fan's screws but it seems like the fan is attached to the whole structure. So I removed ALL the screws and tried to remove the structure... but it was very hard and I saw some glue peeling off so I backed off..



My laptop seems now a bit shaky (next to the audio wholes) and I fear I've done something irregular. It's not so bad so I suppose it's ok... Now, how on earth do I remove the fan?!?!



And is it the right place to apply thermal paste?



Omg... HELP.



P.S. : I wanted to put thermal paste so that I could overclock enough to play Starcraft II with my new 26 inches screen on ultra settings. I run mine at 700/100 when on Zalman cooler.



P.S. II : sorry for double posting but this one is more detailled and people on GX640 owners thread don't answer!
