building my new rig

memory · 03-03-2008, 06:27 PM

Okay I received my case today and started putting stuff together.

I think I may be missing a piece for my motherboard.

Shouldn't there be another piece?

What do you mean?

Thats the I/O panel that you put on your case, you pop off the one that comes with the case and replace it with that one

I can't figure out how it goes on. Do I not have to screw it to anything? How does it stay in place?

Also, there are several different types of screws that came with the case. Does it matter which ones are used where?

Man, I am having all kinds of trouble. I kinda got the back panel for the motherboard figured out. I can get it in there but it is loose, nothing holding it in place.

Now I am trying to install the graphics card and the connections doesn't line up with the slots in the rear. I don't know if I am doing something wrong, but something isn't right.

Okay I got the back panel on for the motherboard and I got the video card installed. Now I am trying to figure out the wiring. Man it's confusing. How do I know where what goes where? I looked through the directions but they were not help at all. It does not say anything about where everything goes.
