Maybe... my question was is it dangerous? Could the magnetic field damage my parts?
magnetism is sure danegerous to hard drives and floppies, but the very small amout that the screw would have aquired is unlikely to do any damege, but to be sure as simon says .. swap screwdrivers

well magnetic fields are not too dangerous. right now we are being pounded with them. As i recall the only thing able to destroy a floppy let alone a hdd is a neodymium magnet are 1T. to put that into perspective, a normal magnet is .1T, the earths magnetic pull is .00005T
