Asrock Extreme3 Gen3 motherboard doesn't fit in Zalman Z9 plus case

[hikurashi83]

After putting in the I/O panel, naturally, when putting in the motherboard, I'll have to match the usb and audio ports to the usb and audio ports on the I/O panel. The thing is, after I match them up, the motherboard is lifted from the bottom (well...side) of the case and the stand-in screws the case provides aren't long enough to screw the motherboard to the case. Also, even if I forced it and i can manage to get the screws in and tight, i'll be bending the motherboard and there will be alot of pressure on the usb/audio panel thing. thanks

It looks like you forgot to install the standoffs. You need one for each mounting hole in the motherboard.
