FuzzyYellow: Sorry about that. Tried to fix it but Windows showed it at the right angle when I uploaded it.

 

Rolling Potatoe: Tried that, it didn't budge. Any other ideas?

Have you checked if there are any scews etc. at the bottom?

Im pretty sure the actual pc can slide out of the case...

Hello all! Sorry if I am posting in the wrong topic as this is my first post. This PC is an old relic that has Windows 98 on it. I need the Hard Drive from it but I am having trouble figuring out how to open the case to retrieve it.  I have been searching the internet far and wide for help but I guess this PC is just too old. I have attached photos to help. Hopefully someone can help!

Thanks,

Kaden

Yes, there are two. Should I unscrew them with the three?

Was the hard drive sata? Did it matter? I harvested one from an older computer and I had to get an adapter.
