I've put my CPU, RAM, and CPU cooler in the case but faced a problem with a motherboard screw. It was hard to move the screw without damaging it, leaving metal shards on the M.2 heatsink. What should I do next? I plan to replace the motherboard since it seems faulty, but I'm worried about metal getting into the other parts. Should I use a vacuum cleaner? Let me know.
