Take a sewing machine needle and place the point in the hole. Now tap the square top lightly. Judge from your progress how hard you need to tap.

I ran into the same prob, my soultion was to use double sided sticky tape. Works perfect! I used the automobile
kind, like on the base of antenna.

Sorry I got the prob wrong. I was talking about the LPC port not getting a good connection. I am a newbie to modding and thightend the screw a little to much, which stripped the hole, leaving the SpiderChip raised. I resolved this by using the double sided sticky tape to mount to the LPC port.

The via holes should be tappped with a sewing needle. Be gentle and start out softly.
