How can I take off the back cover on my Acer aspire 1 722 laptop so I can access the CMOS? It's stuck with just one screw and I have a Torx precision screwdriver set, but I still can't get it out. I had to remove it to upgrade my RAM or take out the battery to open up the BIOS settings, even though passwords won't help me through this process now.

The quickest way to fix some computers is to get the whole repair kit that includes every standard screw and bit you'll need for the locks on those machines.
