Use the screwdriver to release the CPU from the socket, take it off together with CPU and then use carton or plastic (preferably carton) to split the CPU die and the radiator. Then sand the radiator from the old paste and use carton again to slowly clean off the remains of the old thermal paste on the CPU die. Do not use anything sharp or metal - scratches will fuck up your CPU.

I cant use screwdriver because the screw from radiator is too small for me and I fucked this screw with bigger screwdriver ;-;

I think to put paste by syringe on CPU without scratching old paste. Is it possible? :v

So, as far as I understand - you fucked up the original screw, and now you cannot get rid of it?
Actually, why you even started doing something with the hardware?
Also, is this laptop?

So you're literally screwed. A syringe may be a little bit helpful, but firstly you should try to remove old paste with something made of plastic. Do not try anything made of metal, or you may end with not a laptop, but unwieldy paperweight.
I don't think, that pliers will be helpful, but you may try that as well. If you want to stick to that device for a little bit longer, consider cutting the secrew's head and mounting a new one.

And a little bit of advice: don't use so much emoji here, or on any other chan at all.
Just out of honest curiosity - you didn't work much physically in your life, did you?

So if I will remove old past syringe can help me with putting new past on?

Exactly. But be aware, that syringe with metal needle may fuck up your CPU. If you can, try to get one like you can see on picrel, or be really careful.

You've completely fucked it. Try to reassemble and hope it still works. Don't put it under any kind of heavy load, ever again. Replace ASAP.

when OP said that it's not working? I conclude that everything is fine, but the hardware was overheating and that's why he wants to change the thermal grease. I'm just wondering, what kind of dumb prick fucked up applying the previous portion of paste.

From my experience, after buying a laptop, you just should change the greace. Even a spoon of butter would be better than shit the manufacturer leaves between the unit and the radiator.
