There are two screws that need to be removed to access the hard drive on the bottom of my Sony vaio vpcee41fx laptop. One

of them is easily removed with a Phillips screw driver but I'm having trouble finding a screw driver to remove the other

one. The other screw has what appears to be a circular indentation on the top of it. What type of screw driver do I need

to remove this screw? Thanks in advance for any help.

Here are a couple of images of the screw I am talking about. I know they're low quality and blurry but it's the best I

could do with what I had. All replies are appreciated.

You probably need a Torx driver. They come in millimeter sizes so you might need to buy a full set to find the one you need.

Good Luck
