Which screws do i use to install the motherboard?

[Thomas Norton Crossman]

This is my build - http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/nortycrosal/saved/#savedbuild_1368885. I'm attaching the motherboard to the case. I have 4 lots of different sized screws which came with the case. Very small ones, slightly bigger ones, some very long ones and some larger ones. The smallest are too small - the next ones up are as well. The long ones are far too long and would go out of the case and the biggest ones seem to fit to a certain point but then become very very hard to screw any further and i don't want to force since i might break the motherboard. HELP!!!

You should have screws which look like this: http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/24009.jpg

Those are standoff screws. You screw those into the case (under the motherboard). Make sure you screw them into the correct holes!
Then place the motherboard on top of the standoff screws and align the standoffs with the screwholes in your motherboard. Then screw it in place with the other screws, which will look something like this: http://www.silverpcs.com/images/screws_mb.jpg or even shorter.

I don't have the brass screws - but i've figured it out. The case comes with attached things to put the screws in so i've now done it. Thank you.

I used screws that look like this for some of the standoffs will it damage it i booted up and worked quite well but can it break anytime soon also if i try to remove it it unscrews the standoffs too so should I try to remove it if i need to. The only way I know how to remove it is by holding the standoffs from the back with pliers or by using a nut and unscrewing it from the front
