GPU laptop screws

[Dudley52]

I got a new GPU for my laptop because the old one is fried. However the screw holes that hold the GPU in position are slightly wider than the old one so the screws don't hold it in position. Where can I buy some screws that will fit it? I'm tempted to go down to my local computer shop to see if they have any but is that taking the piss a bit since I didn't buy the card from them?

Went to a local PC repair shop. The guy started looking in this tray of screws then changed his mind "actually just bring it in and we'll fit it for you"

So I went to another one and the guy was alot more helpful, got me 4 screws and they fit perfectly, free of charge I'll definitely be going back there for future PC problems now while avoiding the first place!
