Hello,

My Rosewill R102-P-BK 120mm Fan MicroATX Mid Tower Computer Case has raised standoffs built in to the case in the form of little "bumps" bended from the panel. I'm wondering if I need to place something in between the bumps and the mobo to make sure it doesn't short, or is it ok to place it right on bumps? I was thinking either washers or throwing some electrical tape over them.

I was confused at first because the screw package came with one stand off, so at first I thought they forget the rest of the standoffs. Then I realized that the bumps were meant to be the standoffs, and if I screwed in more standoffs into the 6 (bump)holes then the Mobo probably wouldn't have lined up with the I/O shield. Didn't help that the case didn't come with a little manual, but I guess this is what happens with an el cheapo case.

Thanks guys.
