No problem. You got all your stuff ready to build or just preparing ahead for when you order the parts?

BoB3rt · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:00

Nope am sat here with my empty case and all the bits infront.. pretty much doing it now... :-D

MumboJumbo · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:03

Hows it going? You got to the wireing up the buttons on the case? I think its the hardest and most frustrating bit lol.

BoB3rt · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:04

haha i dun that b4 so shudnt be to bad just reading the pins on the mobo... type writting. am just putting th mobo in. =)

MumboJumbo · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:07

*looks over in liverpools direction waiting for the mushroom cloud to appear because he front to put the litle plastic things to prevent the mobo touching the case and shorting*

Well if your case coming with them make sure you dont forget but they arn't really nessasry and loads of people dont bother with them.

BoB3rt · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:11

haha ya i made sure ther on =) ... previously used this case, and i only got 6 screws cnt find the others was like 2 years ago, need 9 so al just have to leave 3 off :-(

in resonable places.

BoB3rt · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:19

wooo wait a sec.... ok i got screws that lift the mobo off the case and little round plastic things - do that go between raise screw/case or between screw/mobo (wen atteching the mobo?

MumboJumbo · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:26

I think they go between the case and the metal bit. So i gues screw case?

BoB3rt · 21 Oct 2007 at 16:30

It's certainly the most fiddly part. You need good eye site as well!

Your sig is to long believe its 4 or 5 lines deap max. Youll get it deleated by the admins and then you gota do it again. When they updated the forum my sig randomly switched its self to all on one line. Then tey deleated it before i got chance to edit it grrrrr.

And no prob about the guide. Its pretty good.

BoB3rt · 21 Oct 2007 at 17:34
