I was replacing the battery when I over-tightened one of the Pentalobe screws on the outside. I stripped it. Now, I can’t get into the computer to do any other repairs. Let me know if anybody has any methods to remove stripped screws without damaging the laptop, and if anybody knows a site where I can buy a replacement screw. Edit: The screw head is stripped but not the threads. I can’t unscrew it and I can’t pop it out.
Remove all the other P5 screws. now you should be able to lift the cover enough to pop the screw out.
