Scratched my motherboard with a screwdriver

So I was trying to clip in the cpu cooler and I was using a screwdriver and I scratched my motherboard by accident. Here's a picture: http://imgur.com/PQY4iCG

Please let me know if everything should work fine

looks like you didn't hit any traces, so should be ok.

Indeed....should be OK without segmenting any traces.

If you had, trace repair kits are available though.

There are also 'pens' that can work in some situations too:

Kudos for one of the better potential disaster pics I've seen here.

But it looks to be of no consequence.
Power up and carry on.
