Problems installing RAM - Screws won't fit in

[lion-king]

I was replacing my RAM y'day for my 13inch macpro, opening the back cover was very easy, but when I tried putting it back, two of the small screws won't tighten fully. A small part of the screw (25%) wont screw in completely. I can sense the the screw projection when I feel it with fingers. I tried the same angle as shown in the manual to unscrew and screw. And I took spl care to use the same screws for the same holes. I tried to fix it for 1hr, but the two small screws never fits.

Any suggestions is greatly appreciated. 😕

MacBook Pro.

Are you sure they're in the right place? Are all the screws the same size?

Yes I am sure. The screws are the same.

Yes I am sure. The screws are the same.

According to the info that came with the computer;

"Important: Because the screws are different lengths, note the screw lengths and
locations so you can replace the screws correctly. Put them aside in a safe place."

Look under chapter 3: "Boost your Macbook Pro".

I think if you look closely you'll see some of the screws might be slightly different.

IIRC, there is one screw that is shorter than the others, the top left one. The rest should be the same size.

Some have to go in at a slight angle. Especially the ones at the bottom edge (battery area).
