Hello! For your setup, you'll likely need a female-female ATX standoff to secure the motherboard properly. Since the manual doesn’t specify what those screws are, a standard ATX standoff size of 2.5mm or 3mm should work well for M2.0x3.0 processors.
Based on the mounting hole, you can simply use regular standoffs and screws. Don't have to reuse the laptop's screws.
Having a thread gauge helps confirm you receive what you require. Lowes offers them if you’re close by. You might attach a long screw with two nuts for easy fastening to a board. Alternatively, use bigger bolts that hold from the sides and place standoffs in the middle of the motherboard for spacing. Hillman 13-in to 64-in Standard (SAE) Thread-Gauge is available in the Standard (SAE) Thread Gauges section on Lowes.com.
