This has been an embarrassing asking around on how to open my ps2, but I am stumped. I have the original ps2, not the slim. I unscrewed all the 6 or however many scews, and I tryed to see if the cover would come off. No luck. It it is being held by something in the front by the drive. Also, how do you pull the cover off with getting it over the controller ports, and the buttons and drive? THANKS!
