Putting all my components in a new case... help!

[mummer43]

Ok, this will be my first time ever totally taking my computer apart and putting everything back together again. I am not installing any new hardware, just putting everything in a new case.

I'm pretty sure I can hook everything up to the mother board, but my main concern is mounting the mother board. Is there anything specific I should know?

From personal experience, i like to mount the motherboard in the case before attaching the cables, that way you can see where they will go in the and and not have them tangled. also, you may have to install risers, little pegs that screw in on 1 end and have something screw into them on the other end. line up you're motherboard in the case to see where you would put those.
