hard drive removal
[font=Impact][b]I have a HP Pavilion N5470 laptop with a 20GB hard drive and would like to replace it with a larger one. I have delt with IBM Thinkpads for years and had no problems removing the cover from the back but the HP has me stumped. It has at least 12 screws on the bottom and I have removed all of them but it still will not come off. Only the front of the cover is loose. It appears that there is a hidden catch or screw in the middle section but I cannot see it. This should not be such a problem! If anyone has worked with these laptops please let me now as my system is in serious need of an upgrade! Thanks in advance for any help.

If the keyboard comes off try removing it and then see if there are any screws behind it, some of the keynote notebooks ive worked with are like this
