Okay, literally technical question in General Discussion

    So I've been disassembling my laptop, and there were these two screws with culled splits (slots for screwdriver, ok). Literally a huge round hole instead of normal split.
    Question: how do I take the screw out? No way I can use pliars, since screws are deep in case; heating is also not an option.

    plz do

        Unscrew them, and just flip the laptop-make it upside down, dunno how to explain it better..me english rocks (they'll fall out after you unscrew them).

        Or just use magnetic screwdrivers.

          Also, if you can't fix that obviously a easy task, forget about dissasembling your laptop. Chances you will assemble it right are small.

            You didn't get the problem.
            The thing is, the screws themselves are bad, not a single type of screwdriver fits them. I've tried some technics like oiling, making a new split etc, none helped yet.
            Kinda looks like that now, even worse in fact:

              Easy-outs?

                put strong glue into the whole, put screwdriver in...

                PROFIT.

                  Thats what I was thinking about. Easyouts might be a solution too.

                  Anyway, I'll have to go and by both - for some weird reason, I don't have any :D
