Bluecow Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 What's the easiest way of getting those tiny screws back in so they support your pci boards??????????They drive me up the wall :( My hands are to big and they tend to bounce off the mobo when I drop them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tankus Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Doesn't a magnetic Field affect the chip......? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 Magnets not recommended near a HD, I have a spring loaded screwdriver when I venture inside my case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Radfordin Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 You need a fairly strong magnet to effect anything, the one on your screewdrive won't do any damage if you are careful. Don't go prodding anything with it, or pretending you can hear the processor through it like some car mechanic cos thats not a good plan! You'll be fine... :ph34r: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tankus Posted June 26, 2003 Report Share Posted June 26, 2003 pretending you can hear the processor through it like some car mechanicTrade trick when your going to wop up the bill Sir Rad...? when all that was wrong was the plug had not been switched on ?
