Baught a Samsung ue22f5000 tv today. Tried to screw the stand to the tv using the 3 screws provided and they wont screw in all the way leaving the laptop wobbling all the over the place when moved and it leans completely the side. What should I do? Thanks.

Have you made sure the holes in the stand are completely clean on little bits of plastic.
My sister bought a Samsung TV and I have to remove little scraps of plastic from around the screw holes so that I could put the screws in properly.

Sorry but what does a laptop have to do with screwing a base onto a tv? Surely the tv would wobble, not your laptop lol

Just looking at your post re your problem with the stand for your Samsung ue22f5000 tv since I am having just the same problem. Wondering if you solved the problem and if so how. Thanks

Take the screws out and check for swarf as suggested. While at it, check the depth of the holes with a needle or cocktail stick. If they are not deep enough to accept the screws, you might be able to drill them a fraction deeper, or if unsure of doing that, take the set back and get another one.

Many thanks - I have tried taking the screws out and checking for swarf but found none. The screws are screwed down tightly as far as they will go, but the tv still tilts to the right quite noticeably. Did you manage to fix yours satisfactorily ?
The tv itself is excellent so maybe I can find a way to fix it myself since if I exchange it the new one may be the same.
