I have an old (like really old) Compaq Presario 5000. I want to rip out the CD and floppy drives but for some reason I can't. It's not (or doesnt seem to be) proped up by screws but some sort of clip or mechanism and for the life of me I cant figure it out. And no help from the compaq/hp website. If anyone has this pc or similar and knows what to do, please help!!

Thanks!

Can't seem to open the other side of the PC. It's screwed in using som odd type of screw (rounded). It's not hex or regular phillips or flathead.
