how do you replace a compaq presario F500 sceen?

Remove all the screws from the bottom. The secret is to remove the two screws on the backside of the hinge, that allows you to gently pry up and off the plastic above the keyboard. From there you can remove the keyboard and access the two screws that hold the middle of the laptop together. Make sure you clean out the fan/heat sink while you're under there.
