    Hi, where in city centre do you think I could buy a philips head screwdriver small enough to open up the screws on back of a laptop?

    There's a chance you'd get one in euro giant located in various places. Otherwise argos or a hardware shop, one on Capel Street

    Try the massive tool shop on capel street. I think its mcquillans? It has everything tool/ building related machine you ever need and its cheap enough

    Most pound/euro shops have them

    I had a very small LED light last night that needed the batteries to be replaced. I picked up a set of screwdrivers in Dealz for €1.49. I can't imagine the screws being any smaller than those on one of the below:

    Thanks for the replies. I was walking up Wexford st near Whelans and had forgotten there was a hardware shop there. Went in and sure enough they had one, hopefully it does the trick.

    You probably paid over the odds in that shop. Camden Casket (2 shops either side of the street) in Camden St would have been the place to go!

    Or any Euro shop really. Maplin's in Jervis St have/had a few multi-head ones for €1 - Philips/Torx etc.

    Not your ornery onager

    You're right - €2.50 I think it was!

    I thought the thread was about a British 1980's skinhead band launching a computer :(
