My motherboard doesn't come with screws?

The case would have originally shipped with the screws and standoffs to mount compatible motherboards. If you have lost them, I would suggest you visit a local PC repair shop to see if they can provide you some from their parts bin.

You can also contact Cougar and ask them to ship those items to you.

Yup, just like stated above.
All screws come with the case package, mobos normally comes with sata cable and relatives, but screws? I don't remeber so...

If you don't have those, they aren't hard to find, a local shop might have them for you.

You need to line up your motherboard with the standoffs on the case. Make sure each standoff is matching up with each hole on the motherboard. If there's a standoff that doesn't match up with the motherboard then remove it as it could short out a part. Once everything is lined up then you can screw the motherboard into the case. Also make sure you install the I/O shield before putting the motherboard in.

Go to a PC shop and get some additional standoffs. That would be the quickest solution.

Also, do you know someone who builds a lot of systems? If so, they likely have a collection of such parts (most of us do).

You would place them into a location in the case where there isn't one of the ones pre-built into the case itself. You may not need to use any of those 3 if the pre-built standoffs line up with all of your mounting points (on the motherboard itself).
