A locking tab on the bottom of the shell (under the base) holds the base in place.
-
Stick a long, skinny flathead screwdriver through one of the vent holes on the back of your Xbox, near the locking tab.
-
Insert the screwdriver between the locking tab and the base. This might take a few tries—use a flashlight if you're having trouble.
-
Use the screwdriver to pry the tab inward (away from the base) into its open and unlocked position.
-
Keep the tab held open for the next step.
