basically my motherboard wont allign with any of the screw holes in the case. I can only get one at a time and that obviously wont work. I dont know whats wrong with it the motherboard and the case are made by the same company so I would think it would fit but its not. This is my first build so can anyone suggest what could be wrong.

Those are the two parts if you are curious I have no idea why they dont fit can anyone shed some light?

Also I cant seem to find the place to put the hard drive on the case, the video I was watching said theres usually slots. But there isnt any slots

Put the back panel plate in the case that came with the motherboard. Then gently push it into position -- frequently the back panel plate has metal tabs that are in the way and you will need to bend them out of the way so that the back panel ports can fully engage into the panel. It will fit, but be gentle but firm.
