      Can you post a picture?
      This may be similar to a Compaq PC I used to have, circa 2001.

          That's almost the same as mine, but slightly different.
          On mine there were 2 Torx screws, at the bottom of the case just under the PSU, which needed to be undone, and then the case just pulled apart.
          It's not an easy case to work on, and most components are proprietary too.
          Hope this helps a little.

            If you can grab some more pics of the rear of the case, specifically near the bottom, it may become clearer and I might be able to help you more.
            I don't have my Compaq any more because the case annoyed me too much, I accidentally broke the motherboard trying to remove it because it wasn't standard, and of course neither was the PSU so that went too.

                Ah, I thought you were having trouble getting inside the case at all.
                I see you've partially disassembled it, that's as far as I got before resorting to brute force and destroying things.
                There's no point taking it further anyhow as the components you can't get at are all proprietary.
                In short, you could take the memory, HDD, CPU and HS, but the motherboard, case and PSU will be no good unless you got another system exactly the same.
                Hope this helps.
