I just bought components for a new computer. Among them are an Landmark 200 case and a msi k7t turbo motherboard.
When i first tried to put the motherboard in the case, it didn't quite fit. The both serial ports (i think that it what they are called..) and the printer port were hitting the edge of the case where they came out causing about 4 of the screws in the motherboard not to line up with the corresponding holes in the case. I thought 'no problem..... i'll just need to sand those out'
After a day of hsnd saanding and crap like that, i finally finished.... and the motherboard basically fit the case holes (it could of been better.... but it was good enough).
Yay! Now i would finally be able to put the motherboard in the case, right?
well..... yeah.....
[peep]ing [peep] piece of crap...... Well the motherbosrd fits.... but now the GODDAMN pci cards won't fit... the motherboard needs to be moved about a milimetre or two back into the case in order for the pci cards to fit.....
Unfortunately there is no way to moved the motherboard back any more.....
piss me off..........
Does anyone have any ideas? Is it the motherboard that is deformed? the case? I'm not sure that i can take the case back as i did sand it.
really pissed off ian
