Missa, based on our conversation on the chat it sounds like it is the same as the Duo-R bit (star with middle pin). U can either use a small jewelers flathead (it will catch) or buy the bit at local hardware store. It is a security bit.

Yeah, same security Torx as the Duo-Rs. Security T-10 I think. Maybe T-15.

I ended up doing the getto method and used a small standard screwdriver and was just super careful.

It's so silly they use this type of screw on the bottom of the case when the screws securing it in the back are phillips like every screw inside it.
