Hey guys, I recently picked up a CoolerMaster HAF 932 case and simply love it...but I am having some problems getting my PCI-E cards back into my mobo now...No matter what I do, the side closer to the back will not go in at all, and I don't get it. My mobo will only screw in 1 way..but I think the placement might be off, I don't know..I can't get my 8800 Ultra in, Raid card or sound card in, all 3 suffer the same issue of not fitting in all the way...Mobo is an ASUS P5K-SE

Here are some pics so hopefully someone can shed some light on this for me!

Also, how the hell does te I/O shield fit in there as well? o_O

Thanks for the help guys, I really appreciate it!
 
how many of the standoffs are you using ? all of them ?

maybe you should try not screwing any in all the way until you have all (or almost all) of them started.
 
What do you mean by standoffs? I lined the mobo up with the holes, put all 6 screws in and tightened them all equally...there is only 1 way for the mobo to screw in I believe.
 
OHHHH! I just looked in my old case and theres a few bronze color screws sticking up...you know, that makes alot of sense rofl!
 
And uhh make sure the bottom of the cards are going through this hole to hold the bottom in place

 
Yeah...I got it taken care of, lol. Total blonde moment....Now that I think about it the mobo is just sitting on the metal case waiting to spark and get fried! Thanks for the quick help guys, I feel like an ass. =P
 
Everything is great now, I never plugged it in..I had no reason to, I couldn't install my pci cards, heh. All I have left to do is cable management and installing a few LEDs and making things look nice. =)
