Need video card bracket screws

Can somebody tell me where I can find a place to purchase these graphic card screws?
They are the 4 screws that hold down the the bracket in these pictures:

Two of the four screws were already a bit stripped and after attempting to get those off I ended up making it worse. I just want to remount it with MX-1.
A RMA to MSI would be $8-$10.
 
hardware store should have them under 'machine screws'. however you may not be able to find something with the exact same head and length (threads should be easy-ish to match).
 
Thanks for the reply. I would prefer to get the exact type of screw so I can warranty the car if it is needed, but I'll keep that in mind.
 
These are actually somewhat difficult to find. I was looking for some replacement screws for an X1900XTX a few years ago and never did find any at a hardware store. Lowe's and Home Depot didn't have any screws that small. My next plan was to try some place like a hobby shop, but I never got around to it.
 
Any electronics supply store should have it, i used to repair computer monitors and used screws like that on some circuit boards and components. If looking online try www.digikey.com and search for machine screws. They have a very good search program and have the datasheets available for download on almost all there products. You will of course have to have the exact specs of the screw you need.
 
Heh, I have no clue what the specs are on my screws. I'll see if MSI can toss me some screws or give me the specifications. Kind of doubtful either will happen.
At least that site does ship with USPS First Class so shipping isn't bad at all.
