Guess 1.5mm long, but M2?

I'm surprised that you are asking this question Dave. Have you not yet run my 3Wire program? You'll see M2 is 0.4mm pitch (Coarse series) but it depends what you really need to know.Lenovo laptop, screws marked, e.g. M2 1.5

The size & form of the thread (M2) will have little to no bearing upon which screwdriver bit you need, that is down to the equipment manufacturer and could be Slot, Pozidriv, Torx etc. - though I couldn't speculate which size.
You probably need a set of 'Watchmakers' screwdrivers which usually have 'rotating' buttons on the non-working end. Here's a link :I'm asking where I can find a screwdriver for these tiny screws?
Look like Philips, but my smallest wont turn them.
That's why I was somewhat circumspect in my pervious post - PoziDriv only specifies down to 0 but I knew Philips had a 00 - didn't know about 000.Thanks... More research, I found (and was surprised) that Philips goes down to 000!

From which This Kraftform Micro screwdriver set features: Phillips, TORX Holding-Function, Slotted and Hex-Plus precision screwdrivers.For most computer work I have a set of Wera Precision Screwdrivers - I use the 12 set, but there is a larger 24 pack available. Links:

In my experience it is always more economical to buy from Amazon.jp. The English version is not 100% but still navigable. Delivery is quick to Italy, about 4 days and taxes are prepaid. Vessel are a common brand on Amazon.jp.Phew. Vessel (I'd not heard of them).
Full set, down to 0000 then two more! All JIS (from the description)
It appears to be a JIS (appears to be similar to Philips), but made in Japan.I think you may find they are Torx T5 headed screws as used in Dell and other laptops. Take a look at the head with a watchmakers glass to make sure. Any particular reason you want to get access inside the Lenovo?
Now that's a new idea! Thanks for that.In my experience it is always more economical to buy from Amazon.jp. The English version is not 100% but still navigable. Delivery is quick to Italy, about 4 days and taxes are prepaid. Vessel are a common brand on Amazon.jp.
€50 shinwa rule was a quarter of the price, many of the tools are. The shipping is not inexpensive, usually around 1500 Jyen but tha includes duty and taxes.It appears to be a JIS (appears to be similar to Philips), but made in Japan.
Now that's a new idea! Thanks for that.
