Torx Screws problem

#Post
1

I need to replace the battery in my Dell XPS i5 9560 laptop, and the instructions say to remove the back panel, unscrew the "M2 x 3mm Torx screws" and remove the battery.
Despite my research, I cannot find any reference to Torx screws of this description anywhere on the internet, none of my screwdrivers will fit these screws, and I can't find any seller offering screwdrivers that would fit.
Any positive suggestions or help would be appreciated.

You will need a T3 Torx screwdriver or bit.

Torx screws are sort of a star shaped screw. They are pretty annoying. You might get a small screwdriver set with a whole lot of different tips and find one which fits.
