Is the keyboard built into the top piece along with the touchpad

Hi,

Here is a link to the service manual for an Acer E5-571P.

On p.104 ( http://www.manualslib.com/manual/440339/...) of the manual it shows the removal of the keyboard. It is separate from the palm rest and touchpad.

Here is a link (from the same manual) which gives the part number for the keyboard.

I suggest that you start from p.100 which shows the pre-requisites necessary for removing the keyboard. Also take note of the warning regarding possible damage to the keyboard during the removal process.

Hopefully this is of some help.
