詳しょう細さい
詳細 is a noun/adjectival noun meaning 'details' or 'detailed', often used in formal or technical contexts. 事細か is more emphatic about covering every little point, and is slightly more literary.
細こまかい
細かい is a common i-adjective meaning 'small', 'fine', or 'detailed'. 事細か is a more intense, compound form that specifically stresses thoroughness in description or examination.

Compound of 事 (こと, 'matter') and 細か (こまか, 'fine, detailed'). The reading こまか is a rare variant of 細かい, used here in a bound form.
