Removed screw on the motherboard
Removed screw on the motherboard
Hello, the main idea is to remove the motherboard screw (SCEW, MOTO, STANDOFF). Don’t wonder about the situation—I’m just a silly goose. The goal is to take out the motherboard so we can fix the issue without posting new system problems one at a time. I’ve tried using a rubber band, electrical tape, and pliers on both the screw and standoff. Nothing worked. Let me know if you have any advice. More details available upon request. (Except the path that brought me here).
It's actually the screw that's the problem, not the stand causing the issue. The best fix after trying all options is to drill it out. You'll need a very small metal drill bit. Also, make sure you thoroughly clean the motherboard—tiny metal fragments could cause shorts. Have you tried different driver head sizes? Sometimes another size works better.
Yes, I've tried flat. Different sizes of Phillips and Torque torq are available, possibly called something like that. On a scale from 1 to 10, what would you rate the chance of physically breaking the mobile with a drill? For drill settings or bits, let me know and I can suggest some. Photos will be shared tomorrow.
Absolutely no chance if you're really attentive, unless you accidentally land on the module...it's just a small drill bit designed for metal, likely around 5mm thick. Try to secure everything firmly as much as you can. For me, putting it back in a case would be safest. Then slowly drill straight through the center of the screw so you won't hit the board.
Consider an alternative approach, such as crafting a flat-head screwdriver bit
Do you have hex or torque drivers available? You could be lucky and find one that matches if you have a compatible set.
