Just be sure your using the right screw for your laptop. Go to the hardware store and find a screw similar to the one you have but will fit better.

the head of the screw is damaged? if you have a rubber band laying around, you can use it to help make better contact with the screwdriver and that reluctant screw.

may your framerates be high and your temperatures be low. #pcmr

Put a screwdriver in it. Push down with a moderate force, put a flathead on the side of it and turn the screw driver while pushign with the flathead. See if that will turn it.
