Wow.. great news! My ram, video card, CD drive, and TV tuner came in!!
I put the ram in, then I started on the video card! Took it out of the box, cleared some cables and tried sticking it in.. but wait, it wouldn't fit?
The PCI slots on the Mother board are not aligned with the case. The Mother board needs to go up some. The reason I didn't catch this is because the mother board has 6 pci slots and the case has seven. So it looked like the were aligned.. and I never really looked
So what do I do? Reading the manual a long time ago I saw that you can take the back panel out and "replace it with the one that came with the mother board." But one didn't come with the mother board I don't know what they're talking about. I'll go read again.
I read. It was the case instructions. It said if the I/O plate (or panel or something) didn't fit, replace it with the one the mobo came with.
What do I do? I already took the mother board out tons of times for everything else.. this time do I have to ship back the case?
Pissing me off....
