How To Open The Chassis To The Hp Z558 Dec

I was a happy owner of the HP Z558 Digital Entertainment Center until, after four years of near-perfect operation, the video card blew and i had to return the unit to HP. That repair led to over a year's worth of dispute and damage that ultimately led to HP buying back my unit, which left me without one. I found a used one in near perferct condition, but i need to repair it, and would like to know how to open the unit. Can anyone help with this? And does anyone know where i can find another new or like-new DEC? HP stopped making them.
