If it already hasn't been answered, the screw holds
the
PSU to the rear of the plastic box. There's a casing
inside that holds the floppy drive and hard drive.
It's got it's own screw at the left-rear, looking from
the front.
The left rear of the floppy/hard drive casing has a
"finger" that latches to a slot in the PSU. Pry away
from the PSU and lift the PSU straight out. It presses
lightly into a 4-pin socket on the motherboard, but
always seems to act "wedged" into the case. A wiggle
while you lift helps.
Then if you want it out for any reason, remove the
screw on the floppy/hard drives casing and wiggle it
backward. It retains to the right side of the case, so
you have to pry on THAT latch, too,
Not heavy work. But some trickiness.
