Asus A2500D wont boot OS/HDD upgrade ?

Hi all,
got a friend that has an Asus A2500D laptop and they said it wont boot up. It just restarts over. I had a look and I can get to the bios and it will boot from a CD but not the HDD. Now they want me to try and recover the info on the HDD and I thought I could pull it out and try it in an external case. Problem is I can't seem to find how to get into this laptop to remove the HDD. Any ideas folks ?

NM, found I had missed one screw still holding HDD in lol. It's always the smallest, simplest things. If a mod see's / reads this post please feel free to delete it as it has no use now
