Hi

I bought Asus ET2400 about 2 years ago . Now I want to upgrade the HDD, Graphics Card and the CPU but the problem here is I don't know how to open the case (cover) .

Screws on the back?

A picture of the back of the case would help here.

I tried to remove all the screws but the case wont get loose.

Ah...sorry. Missed the fact that it is an AIO.

For that, you almost certainly cannot upgrade the GPU.

This is not the exact same model, but this video might help:

Remove the cover over the RAM, remove the RAM...you might expose some other screws letting you into further reaches of the thing.

is it possible to change the motherboard so I can change the graphics card ?

Almost certainly not. An AllInOne is more or less a laptop, in a different configuration.
All of the parts are designed around each other. MB, case, ports openings, cooling....all designed as one piece.
The only possible way would be if there were a better motherboard, from that exact same series, that actually fits that case perfectly.
They are not meant or designed to be upgraded.

All In One - all the limitations of a desktop (non-portable) with all the limitations of a laptop (non-upgradable). And none of the advantages of either.

if it possible, how do I know if the motherboard is compatible with processor and graphics card ?
