Trying to remove a hdd.

[cthulhu]

One of the screws seems to be stripped. It just spins in place and doesn't move. How can I remove this screw? I need to take the hdd in question and move it to a new pc I am building. Thanks for any help.

Get a smaller flat head screwdriver (maybe for fixing eye glasses) and wedge that underneath the screw in question.

Screw out as normal, while pushing the flathead underneath, as you remove the screw.

Yea had that happen, normally i just use my fingernail and pull on the screw in question as i unscrew it. It's was when i used a screw that was a little to small/short.

Good Luck!!
