[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 672269, member: 56231"] G'day from across the Tas. You need a specific driver for those eMac screws, one called a T10. I suggest you buy a case of specialised drivers. I bought the Promark brand Bitset with 100 drivers, most of which I'll never use :D but when I've needed something for security screws etc, it's been a boon. Next thing: visit these sites for an eMac manual, the real McCoy [url]http://home.earthlink.net/~strahm_s/manuals.html#imcs[/url] and [url]http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies-archive.cfm/170252.html[/url] Failing any of the above, you may need to drill out the damaged screw, and if so, I don't envy you. I hope you've got a good drill clamp or press. Accuracy will be essential. [/QUOTE]
