Area-51 7500, 2004, key?
I have an old Alienware Area-51 7500 (Dragon) case in very good condition. The old system is still inside it, which I either hope to replace, or just remove its HDD before we dispose of it, but we cannot find the original keys to remove its side panel.
However, due to its age, it is not listed on the Product Finder page. The system was purchased in 2004, but I was wondering if Dell knows where I can purchase some new keys?

That is a pre-Dell PC. Dell did not purchase them until 2006. Dell does not have keys or manuals for those old Alienware.

Left side panel of the case. In this picture you can see the locking panel which hides the tubular cam lock that keeps the internals safe

either pay a locksmith or use a drill to bust the lock.

if you bust the lock you can buy a new one w key on eBay if needed.
