Here is a picture showing exactly what I mean. My new Asus laptop has a really cool but frustrating problem. Just when I was putting the touchpad back in after buying it used, all those tiny screws fell right out of my hand. So right now, I'm thinking about other ideas without taking apart the whole keyboard because of one silly screw, and I'm ready to hear any suggestions.

You can stick broken things back together using JB Weld or regular epoxy. Clean up the hole and the bottom of the part that broke. I don't know if the screw fell into the threads, but it's easy to take out once you let the glue harden for 24 hours.

The screw is still there, though one of its threads has snapped off. Since the screw is actually inside the hole, I think I should take it out first before using glue and then put the threads back together. Thanks so much for your suggestion!
