Dell replacement screws
Hello,
I was upgrading the Ram in my new Inspirion 7590 and the both some of the base screws and mounting screws were stripped. How do I obtain replacments?
Home Depot sells M2 x 4 mm https://www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-M2-0-4-x-4-mm-Phillips-Flat-Head-Stainless-Steel-Machine-Screw-2-Pack-843438/204852270 which are 1 mm shorter than the 5 mm that you need but should work.
Otherwise, you can buy the screws from Amazon or on eBay ( https://www.ebay.com/itm/M2-Phillips-Flat-Head-Countersunk-Machine-Screw-Steel-w-Black-Oxide-DIN-965/122467347086 )

I can't tell from the manual if the three captive screws are the same as the five base screws. They appear to be longer.

Page 10 in the Dell manual lists all the screws/sizes. Probably best to just try and get them yourself.
