I would like to replace my cd drive with a dvd-rom drive.Looking at the underside of the computer I see 1 screw near the front of the drive.If I remove this screw will the drive slide out, or do I need to remove all 10 screws on the underside of the laptop(SHUDDER!!!)?

Usually there is just one or two screws to remove. Often, the screw will have an image of a drive next to it. Best bet, search google for your laptop model and "disassembly".
