Hi there,

I need to remove my graphics card but the thing won't budge. There's no screws that I can see. Is there a latch or something I need to undo?

The case is a Foxconn 3GTH202 if that helps. http://www.pc.plateau.co.nz/productdetail.php?pid=265

Any help appreciated,
Thanks

Normally there is one screw on the faceplate of the graphics card, that attaches it to the case. This is where you would plug in your monitor.
Secondly, there is a latch on the motherboard at the opposite end, once the screw is out, you will need to pull on this latch so that a part of it comes out of the graphics card, as which point you can carefully lift it out.
