Can't identify screw (Fujutsi Scaleo P)

Okay, so I'm trying to get my bloody computer case up (Fujutsi, Scaleo P), however, according to a website I visited, to pull it out I have to unscrew 4 different screws on the backside. Fair enough. Then I notice that 2 of the screws I can't unscrew. For some odd reason there's 2 of one kind of screw and on the other side of the backside there's 2 completely different screws.

So these 2 screws are very small truss screws (so I can't poke them up), but instead of a cross in the middle, there's just ANOTHER round hole where none of my screwdrivers seems to fit. Now, I must fix my computer because it has completely screwed up (no pun intended).

Couldn't find any pictures on Google either, unfortunately..

Many OEM cases are riveted on one side. Can you post a pic of the screw head?
Something like that, only that the power button is turned so it faces up and not to the side. The fan isn't located at that place either. Otherwise that's basically how it looks. However, the screws on the side is not really easily identifiable.

Wait, there, I see one. The screw I'm talking about is the one left of the label (where it says CE and the timeglass-looking thingy), which is just underneath the fan. That's the screw I'm talking about.
Hi the screws are on the edges 1 at the top 1 at the bottom of each side not the central area those are not required to remove the side

No no no, you got it wrong. This'll be hard to explain but:

The screw that sits next to the label in the picture is the ones that I have on one of my sides on my computer, those that are obligatory to remove to remove the case.
That's how the screw looks, except the hole isn't a hexagon, but just a circle with no corners whatsoever.

That sounds like a rivet.
What are you trying to do?
To get to the inside of the case remove the 2 screws on the other side and slide the side cover towards the back.

Typical, I've wasted 3 hours trying to get the damned thing up and all I had to do was to slide it backwards. Thanks a lot bro. Damned computer overheats and starts making police siren noises, so if you could answer that as well that'd be awesome. Else I'll just make another thread.
Make sure the CPU fan is spinning, then try blowing out any dust from the heat sink fins under the fan with a can of compressed air.
