    You can contact your reseller. They should be able to send you a set.

    they will ask why I need them and will void my warranty.
    I lose warranty if I repaste myself.I did but they dont know about it.

    I can ask other resellers but maybe I can buy somewhere else.

    Aw I see. I wasn't aware repaste voided warranty from your reseller. Who is it? Just curious :)

    Edit. If you have a best buy close to your home they will generally hahe the screws you need. I got a set for my Dell for free. The guy just gave them to me.

    Sorry not much help I know. I'll open my laptop later to see for sure.

    I just asked my reseller. Reseller said the screw size would be very hard to find, and he sent them promptly. Love my reseller.
