I've used vise-grips to get ahold of a screw head and loosened it that
way. The worse thing that could happen is for the grips to slip off.
If you have vise-grips that come to a point, like needle-nose pliers,
they may work better if the screw head is not too accessible.

My new RAM arrived this morning to upgrade the refurbished iMac
(aluminum) and when I turned it over, I immediately saw that the
phillips head screw has been stripped. I even felt the burrs. On the
off-chance there might be a way to remove it, I've tried various
sizes using accepted practices
