Install ASrock h97m Pro4 into Nzxt s340 help?

[Walkeri]

I am currently in the middle of putting together my recently acquired parts and I am having trouble installing my motherboard (ASRock H97M Pro4) into my case (NZXT S340). The case has two standoff screws already sticking out which the motherboard is on right now, but I can't figure out where to screw anything else into. It came with a single standoff screw but I don't know what to do with it - I tried to screw it into the one screw one with an opening on the other side, but it doesn't reach. Does anybody know how to install it? Thanks.

''We are also given an extra standoff, and a socket to remove the preinstalled ones if you do not plan to use an ATX motherboard, as that is how they have it setup.

so yiour using a m-atx board so I guess it needs to be removed ??

Maybe, but then wouldn't the motherboard be directly touching the case?

so I don't know whats the deal on that case that one guys has no pillars built in the one in the review does ??

so I guess if yours is like the guy in the toms thread do as he had to ??

I like no matter where you look nobody explains any of this in any way ??

and you got to love there manual under motherboard instillation

like how they show the board and with the screws and the lines showing where the screws are going right into a open area of the case , LOL

went to newegg to see if anyone reviewed it about the standoffs and nothing ?? then I went to images of it and magnified the pic of the inside view of the case and it also shows the pillars built in for the board to set on so you would just need to use the removable standoffs to fit the board your using as needed ?? then on the overview pic of the inside of the case it shows none [under simple interior layout] ??

I don't get it

Well I think I figured it out, it was just a dumb mistake. It did have some standoffs already in the case that I used, but for some reason they leave a large section of the motherboard not supported by anything. So I might take the motherboard and everything back out and screw in the one included standoff if I have to
