Hi there, I have taken off the front panel of my cooler master cm 690's (after a gargantuan effort) and now that I'm ready to put it back in, I am having difficulties again.
When taking off the front panel, no matter how hard I tried I simply couldn't do it. People online said don't be afraid to use the amount of force that might seem like its going to break, because that is what I had to do. After a half hour I got it off, and now that I'm ready to put it back on, more trouble. I can't seem to get it to lock into place. All of the pins seem to be in their slots, but the top of the panel isn't aligning with the top of the case, and the same goes with the bottom. If anyone has had previous experience with this case, and knows some tips they would be greatly appreciated.

Assuming there isn't a wire blocking it, you may need to use the palm of your hand to give it a few [light] whacks around the perimeter. That's what I always have to do.
