Sounds extreme to actually take it apart. Mine were fine just moving them on the back wheels.
This industry has become 2 dimensional as it transcended into a 3D world.

I don't have an Astro anymore but as I remember it,
Take the hood off
Remove the monitor
Undo the bolts that connect the monitor frame to the front of the cabinet
Go around the cabinet and unscrew 10+ screws
Should come right apart. If its been taken apart before, it should be pretty easy. If not, make sure to have a very long screwdriver. I have no idea what to do if you strip a screw, so take precaution.

The back of an Astro city is a scary place , switching to med res/low res on one of those things wasn't fun. :/
Couldn't get the bolts out of one we moved, so we ended up having to take a window out and lift the damned thing through - not easy as you can imagine, the things weigh a ton.

Done it twice now. Those Astro's have a hard time fitting through interior doorways. Two of my buddies have Astro's and hopefully they'll never get rid of them. It was a pain only 'cause the screws were in tight and we didn't want to strip them. Pretty easy other than that. Anyone know where you can get replacement screws?Alec wrote:I don't have an Astro anymore but as I remember it,
