Werkzeuge

Start by pressing the big green button. And pulling the door away and up from the computer.
-
And on the Back of the door is the fan.
-
-
-
Now it's best to lay the computer flat.
-
And to flip up the tabs, grab the handle and open.
-
-
-
Now the speaker
-
Remove the speaker wires
-
And the fan wires from the motherboard
-
Push in the two plastic tabs on either side and lift the speaker up and out.
-
-
-
The processor, firmly grasp and pull out.
-
Remove the 4 #1 Phillips screws
-
And push the 4 tabs off of the board
-
-
-
Any video card or usb card, mine happens to be an ethernet 10/100 card.
-
Unfortunately there are 6 spaces but only 3 slots on the motherboard :(
-
Remove the #1 Phillips screw and pull the card out.
-
-
-
Moving on to the CD, ZIP, and Floppy drives (best to close computer now)
-
Remove the bezels and if I had the top one remove that too.
-
Remove the 6 phillips screws and pull the metal frames out.
-
-
-
Remove the data and power cables
-
Pay special attention to this one, it has a clip on it, it helps to use a flathead or a spudger.
-
Pull the drives out of the bay.
-
-
-
Now the hard drive.
-
Remove the two phillips screws
-
And the data and power cables (might help to remove them as you pull the drive out)
-
-
-
The power source
-
Remove the two connectors
-
There is a clip holding the wires in place. Separate and remove the wires. (both sets)
-
-
-
Now remove the 4 phillips screws (it's best to start with the bottom two)
-
And pull it out while de-threading the wires.

Nice. I got a beige G3 300 Mhz, the case is similar. Maybe I could also make a teardown.
