Lamusica Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago I tried to remove imac computer screen( beneath glass) with torx screwdriver driver, only 2 of ten came out and now the tiny screws are a bit stripped , probably my fault for using a cheap torx screwdriver. Is it worth still getting a better torx quality screwdriver or should I look at other means of extracting my hard drive?

ianr Posted 6 hours ago Share Posted 6 hours ago Did you perhaps use the wrong width driver, and strip off just part of the screws' internal spline? Whatever, do you think there's enough spline left for a driver to get purchase? I've a driver with a set containing T4 to T9, T10 and T15.

Lamusica Posted 4 hours ago Author Share Posted 4 hours ago (edited) I think I used the right one but unfortunately the quality wasn't good. I believe T10 is the correct size for imacs i think I'm just going to recycle somehow Thanks for the info ☺️ Edited 2 hours ago by Lamusica Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/365997-advice-about-stripped-torx-screws/#findComment-1717698 Share on other sites More sharing options...
