My Samsung RF511 laptop's been running kinda slow and overheating a lot recently, so I thought I'd have a look at the fan to see if it needs dusting. I've taken all the screws out, removed the battery etc., and I can see into the laptop now but there's this one final corner of the back that just will not budge. There are no screws nearby (and as I said, I've checked and triple-checked to make sure I've removed them all), and though I've been able to get my fingernails underneath it, all that got me was a chunk taken out of my thumb.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

There can be additional screws under the little rubber "feet" on the bottom of the case. Pry those off to ensure you got that all.
