Remove access panel

[Raul99]

I am attempting to add RAM to my Lenovo Ideapad Y430 in preparation to upgrade to Windows 7. When I remove the 3 phillips head screws from the bottom access panel, it remains firmly attached by some sort of internal fixation. I can pry up the edges but don't want to break anything. Anyone have experience or suggestions? Thanks Raul

According to this, the small access panel is not it. Remove the large access panel.
