Screws stuck, what do? I’m doing this cause the cooler-backplate thing fell behind the mobo, and I am having trouble unscrewing the screws. Here is a vid

Sometimes, you really have to try to get those out.

 

If you can use a normal screwdriver, you could probably get it to work. If not that, some vice grips or pliers should do the trick.

Use a Screw driver. The fatter the handle, the better leverage you have.
