Has anyone got any tips/advice for removing a stubborn (and now slightly mangled) screw in the RAM access panel on a powerbook G4?
Thanks in advance!

If that happens, a nice way to deal is to get an itty bitty Dremel disc and cut in a slot, so it can be turned out with a flat blade.russed said:Just whatever you do, do not make it any worse than it may currently be - i.e. do not strip the head of it becuase i wouldnt like the job of having to drill it out!!
Applespider said:Electronics shops are probably your best bet. I got mine in Frys in the US. Depending on where in London you are and how long you need it for, I could lend you mine. Only trouble comes if you ever need to take that 1GB RAM stick back out before sending it off for Applecare etc
dietcokevanilla said:Hmmm that thing about AppleCare - would you advise that I keep the 256MB stick that I take out then? I was going to try to sell it maybe here or on ebay, although probably wouldn't get much for it anyway.
