Bought a second hand laptop, they used the wrong screws on case. It's lifting off and I need to replace them, but I cant find any info or what size they are normally?
Can anyone help? I'm so lost I tried Google and cant find anything.

ah thank you! now need to work out which screws go where
Page 33 in Hybroid's document, exactly as he pointed out.
oh it was little confusing on the page.
i just ordered them from here https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/363089835407?hash=item5489d7358f… hopefully their right
Two Phillips M2.0×6.0 screws (2) from under the feet.
Four Phillips M2.0×4.0 screws (4) that secure the cover to the computer.
And there is a diagram.
Wow, those screws look pretty gnarly from the photo close-ups! Also, with screws you have threads-per-inch (or mm) as well as pitch, in addition to circumference and length. The ones pictured look like a course thread vs. the fine thread used in most laptops. Hope they work out, but don't force them.
noted, thanks
the screws didnt fit even though it says its meant to. bit confused now.
only middle one fits
Is the thread is gone in the plastic?
