I don't use those motherboard spacers that often and never had a problem in any of my previous builds. I just line it up and screw it in. I did use the plastic standoffs on this computer to give it a snug fit against the case (had those tapped into the middle of the motherboard where the holes are for mounting). Used the regular metal screws on the corners.

That guy's just making up some excuse about your computer. What kind of a tech is he? Does he have his own repair shop or is he one of those certified CompUSA or Best Buy techs? He just want to sell you his parts to make money off of you. I don't see why a Compaq hard drive won't work in other PCs. They're pretty much universal. Kind of like saying "oh, you can't use that floppy drive from that Dell computer because it's for Dell systems. You need to use this type of floppy drive for your Gateway PC and not the Dell floppy drive." I can understand older PCs can't support new larger drives, but that's a different thing (BIOS limitations).
 
Okay... about that ram.. how the heck could you put your ram in a slot that isn't for the ram? I don't see where it would fit in anything other then the ram slot.

You should of asked us here before you went and spent $200 (why would they charge that much anyways?).
