From what I see, the MB is toast, I see a crushed cap next to the screw. So is it really necessary to save the MB?
When things like this happen, take it slow and easy and use the right size screwdriver.

That isn't quite as bad as it looks and I have repaired boards with things like those caps missing or broken off, that is exactly one of the things I had to fix on the Abits I repaired last weekend and it all went well.
If he cracked the board itself and severed circuit traces that would be a real headache.
Doesn't matter though if he can't get the screw out.
