    • In the battery compartment, find the phillips screw that is holding the rear panel onto the computer. Unscrew it.

    • With the battery compartment closest to you, push the panel away from you. Once it slides back until it stops, gently lift it and put it to the side.

    • Please note that this particular screw does not completely come out, it stays with the rear panel and that is ok.

    • In the opening next to the screw, gently push out against the disk drive, and remove it from the disk drive compartment.
