I'm trying to open up my laptop and am stuck. I've taken out every single screw and am now left with what looks like two fasteners with a smooth top in a tight hole so that I can't use a screwdriver on them nor drip pliers into the tiny hole to unscrew/remove them.
It's a Compaq Presario 2590.
It's got to be these two remaining fasteners because I can lift up the entire frame except for the part near these pieces.

Any clues on what to do???

:confused: :confused:

Andi,
Have you asked the tech guys online? Should have ideas.

Funny you mention that Andy. I just opened my old Sony VAIO laptop, with a crowbar :eek: , the thing just quit and died on me a year or two ago, so I decided to dissect it into a million pieces. That was fun :D Amazing how must stuff in in such a small box. A mechanical masterpiece. I still have my Dell laptop and it better be on its best behavior :p
