Stripped Screw.. amagad HELP!

If the screw head is above the case (i.e. it's not sitting flush with another surface), then get a rotary tool (e.g. Dremel) and a grinding disc. Cut a "flat screwdriver" slot into the stripped head then remove as per usual with a flat head screwdriver.

That will only work if the head is stripped. If the winding part of the screw is stripped then the above suggestion will make the problem worse.
 
actully that WILL work - and seeing as though its some kark lead screw it shouldnt be too hard to cut it with a normal kitchen knife :D
