Changing Hard Drive Aspire 1362 WLMi
I'm faced with the task specified above.
From a previous thread it seems that the hard drive is situated in a drawer behind the battery, this seems to be so in my case, though the model I have is different to the previous thread. The drawer has a clear plastic tag attached to it which seems to be inviting a tug, the tug was duly applied but nothing seems to be moving. Are there any screws which need removing or latches which need to be released prior to removal, or am I merely not tugging hard enough. Perhaps one of the previous correspondents, or someone else who has experienced this task would be kind enough to advise me. Thanks in advance for any useful advice.

Sorry but I can't see any screws in the area at all. I have taken off the
memory cover and removed the memory in case the screw was hidden in there but no joy. Any other offers? Mertyl "Mertyl Kapertyl" wrote in message ... Thanks doS.

Is that after removing the screw? Is the screw under the keyboard? I can't
see anything in the way of a screw in what I think should be the right area under the base of the machine. Is the screw visible without dismantling any components?
