Stripped Screw on Motherboard

[Bernard]

How can I remove this piece of shit? There's no grip on it. Are there stores that can remove stripped screws? Can't find any screw extractors at home and I don't want to use a drill or hammer on a motherboard.

Bit blurry but...

Yeah it's not a cross anymore.

The only way i can see is using a small drill tip to drill into the screw and extract it either that or get some pliers and try that

[Assistive]

Get a pliers and just twist it off with pliers.

Some friends recommended me that, don't see how that works though.

It's not surfaced at all.

Oh I was thinking it had some sort of head. How stripped is the screw?

You can pick up a stripped screw removal kit at virtually any hardware store.

Think Home Depot would have it?

I tried using a flat head, the flat head would turn but the screw wouldn't, the cross is now more like a demented circle.

Not sure then bro. You can try a flat head, it might work.

Wut...I just said a flat head failed

Not sure if this will work but get the tubing from a bike tire and cut a patch big enough to cover the screw head. Then try unscrewing it.

Might work.

U GOTTA BE HELLA STOOPS TO STRIP A SCREW THAT BAD IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Just saying.

I'd drill it, but then again I'm not an expert in stripping screws or removing stripped screws.

[Schuba]

Twist it out with a very high powered magnet.

Take a flat head, take a hammer, make a new grip, then gently turn it. Don't break the motherboard tho
