Hi guys
I recently updated my motherboard and CPU and had to put them in an old e-machines case while I waited for my new case to arrive.

Anyway one of my mobo screws is stuck. It turns both ways but doesn't tighten or loosen. The back of the case is bolted on with what I can only describe as mini rivets. I pried a bit of the back off and there no access to the mounts for the screws.

The only way I can think to get it out would be to very carefully superglue a screwdriver to the screw and pull it out.

But that seems a bit extreme so I thought I would ask here first before going down that route.

Thanks in advance.
 
Lol, gotta love it just keep screwing it and lightly pull on the motherboard- it will come out.
 
Already tried that CIA but the screw is right near the center of the Mobo and lifting it doesn't help much. Went with the superglue method worked fine, thanks anyway though :)
 
Aye lol, was a but extreme but managed to save the screw driver 😛 trying to gove you best answer but can't find the option on my phone
