Antec P182 Mounting Screws

Hi,

My P182 only came with 3 of the gold hexagonal motherboard mounting screws, are there supposed to be more? how exactly are you supposed to screw down a board with only 3 screws, when there should be about 9?

Thanks

Jack

pretty sure i had enough for each of the preinstalled posts (9?)

Have you looked inside the case yet? With mine most of the holes already had pre-installed mounting screws which all matched up to my board. I had a few in the little bag which I guess are just needed if your board has holes in different places than most.

I build mine today and the 9 were already screwed into position, it was just spare with the screws.

Hmm looks like i made a seriously noob mistake with this one! I was screwing the 3 gold mounts that were in the screw bag into the silver ones that were already in place

And i wondered why my board was so high :/ Oh well wont make that mistake again, thanks guys .
