It is unclear which screws you removed. If that computer truly uses 2.5" 
drive, they are standard. I understand some new small computers use 1.8" 
drives.

The screws to remove would be the ones on the bottom. Normally you can see 
the drive ( especially if you know what a 2.5" drive looks like) and 
determine what is not part of the drive. Remove that!!
