    Yes, I tried and it just slipped. It screwed in too tightly.

    The best option is to take the laptop to a repair center so the technician can remove the screws.

    First of all, make sure the screw driver is the right size for the screw, preferably one with bigger handle so you can apply enough torque.

    Secondly, apply a drop of Liquid Wrench type of stuff ( or some kind of spray on type of similar product) to the screw thread and let soak for fifteen minutes.
    This will help free up the screw if you have not damaged the screw.
