Greetings.
I replaced the motherboard in a Dimension L733R case with
a micro-ATX board. I'm used to the "old fashioned" plastic
pins for retaining the mobo, but the Dell uses what looks
like little twisted wire posts, and a big retaining spring.
The retaining spring doesn't work with the new mobo (which is
about 2 cm shorter than the original).
What do you use on those little twisty posts to hold the board
down? I'm thinking about a blob of RTV silicone, but would like a
cleaner solution.
Thanks,
