Hi Folks,
I wonder if anyone with a long memory can help me out.
I want to have a look at a neighbour's PC which has been giving a bit of trouble, and need to take the cover off the case to get inside (especially to clean out dust, dead insects and cobwebs... ). Superficially looks like a standard desktop box.
However, it was made by Dan Technology in 1995 ...
I can't see how to take the cover off the case: on the surface it looks as though you can slide the overall cover off backwards, *provided* you can work out which screws you need to remove in order to free it.
It's the question of "which screws" that's vexing me. The cover itself has no screws obviously associated with holding it in place.
There's what looks like a back-plate with a total of 15 screws in it, some of which may simply be fixing screws and some of which seem to be associated with mounting internal bits like fans, port sockets, etc.
Maybe the solution is to remove all these, take off the backplate, and then see how to get at removing the cover. But the last thing I want to do is remove screws blindly and cause unwanted consequences!
I've never seen a case quite like it.
If anyone can remember opening up a Dan box like this and can advise on how to proceed I'd be very grateful.
Thanks, and best wishes to all, Ted.
