Default not homebuilt, but need help

It's a Compaq Presario and all I want to do is take out the old HD and put
in a new one. Got the front cover off and the left side (from the front),
but can't figure out how to get the right side (MB side) off so I can get to
the screws on that side of the hard drive. Can anyone help please. Thank
you. Roberta

Hi Roberta, you didn`t say which model, so I suggest you
go to www.google.com and type in ....
opening Compaq Presario case

That`ll get you a few hits to explore.

Thank you Peter. Once I figured out it goes out the front and not the back,
it worked like a charm. Roberta
