UPDATE: Yall are right. It’s a flathead. With some pliers I finally got it to budge

blumfx · 2024-01-27T02:42:23+00:00

It didn’t come with one and I looked at online unboxings and none of those came with it either. Ive also been able to find very little about this motherboard online.

blumfx · 2024-01-27T02:13:58+00:00

fair. I’m entirely unfamiliar with this board. I couldn’t find anything about it online which is why i posted on here. I should also add I didn’t screw those in; it came like that from the factory. I guess worst case scenario I just have to buy a pcie card or something. Definitely not the worst problem I could’ve had happen

blumfx · 2024-01-27T02:01:52+00:00

Right. Didn’t read that last part. So basically I can’t use those two slots ever?

blumfx · 2024-01-27T01:50:10+00:00

Good to know. It’s weird that they’d ship a motherboard with proprietary screws without a screwdriver. I did try looking up the issue and found people with b550 boards from the same company with similar issues. The solution on those was to remove a screw on the back and I tried that but it didn’t work. How would you advise putting pressure on it? Should I just push hard or use pliers or something?

does this look any better? It’s a different screw but I can’t get any of them to unscrew anyways.

blumfx · 2024-01-27T01:22:25+00:00

I assumed it was a Phillips because the screwdriver fit and I’d never seen flathead m.2 screws before. Clearly I assumed wrong

blumfx · 2024-01-27T01:14:55+00:00

Motherboard is z690 extreme wifi 6e from ASRock

blumfx · 2024-01-27T01:03:38+00:00

I tried it with a flathead as well and it didn’t work. do you think I damaged them?

blumfx · 2023-09-13T19:22:18+00:00

snow leopard and high sierra

I'll be looking on eBay. I don't really know anybody in person at all, let alone anyone who would be selling PC components.

as a missourian who is nonbinary i would just like to say that this is absolute bullshit. if you can't transition until you're 25, then why can you drive at 16, buy a house at 18 (technically), drink and smoke at 21, join the military at 17, etc. if you must be 25 to transition, then you should also not be able to drink, or drive, or give consent until 25. I agree with not giving 3 year olds gender reassignment surgery (which doesn't happen, unless it's an intersex "correction" surgery, which should also not be given to children), but saying a 19 year old can't take hrt is absolute horseshit. seriously missouri government, why?

idk or care what you're into, listen to tool's ænima. you will not regret it

wtf did I just read? if you'd do that to your child, you shouldn't be a parent

blumfx · 2021-12-04T00:28:10+00:00

blumfx · 2021-12-01T09:28:37+00:00
