No it doesnt as i have a very similar kit. What you need is a set of jewellery screwdrivers. You can get them cheap from B&Q. Prob about a fiver.

Problem with those is that the metal is very weak. Probably made in china, as is everything, but of a very inferior quality metal.

Got that exact kit (from another place Y-E-A-R-S ago).. theres a double ended Screw Driver in there too, with a Small Slotted and Small Philips head driver at either end!..

I've used it for Laptops before!... dunno if Netbooks have smaller screws (shouldn't have!)..

It's a very useful toolkit!.. the grabber is a godsend if you have mahoosive Hands and 'Pigs ***s' for fingers like me!!

I've always used a #1 phillips. Don't need a jewellers one
