Removing the case cover. I have an IBM Personal Computer 300 GL with a ridged plastic case. It looks like the caseing just slides, snaps or pulls apart. It appears to have no screws that have to be removed in order to remove the case cover from the tower. My question is are there any secret or hidden buttons I need to push in order to remove the plastic case from the computer tower. I am having a heck of a time and all I want to do is replace the modem. Thankls for any help.

I was able to get the web page to come up but those are a little different than my model which is a 6285-56u. Is there another site I could go to for the 6265 model...Thanks
