Toshiba T1910cs: How to open case?



I've got a couple of old (antique?) Toshiba T1910CS laptops that were
given to me years ago by a generous contributor to this newsgroup
(with whom I've unfortuately lost contact because all my email from
those days is stuck on a now defunct computer).

These laptops have been in storage for a number of years and I just
recently unearthed them and would like to try to get them up and
running again because I think they would make great writing machines.
I used to run a DOS based text editor on them and miss the simplicity
and elegance of that old fashioned text based software.

Neither of the laptops will boot anymore, but they do give me blinking
LED codes, (which I don't know how to interpret).

I'd like to pop open the case and check the CMOS battery but don't
have a clue how to get in. Are there any old timers like me in this
newsgroup who could help me figure out how to get inside these little
beasts?

Also, it would be great if I could find a list of the blink codes for
these machines so I could understand what they are trying to tell me.
