I honestly feel ridiculous asking this question. Installing a case fan should be simple (right?). I just got a couple 120mm fans. I'm installing them in an old 2006 Coolermaster Centurion (the fans are also Coolermaster). To be honest, I haven't installed a case fan. I've built computers but never had to install case fans.
The problem I'm having is the fan doesn't seem to screw in easily. It feels like the holes aren't even threaded. The fans came with 4 screws each. I put the fan flush with the inside of the grill, and put the screw on the outside of the hole and start screwing in it. But, like I said, they are extremely resistant to being screwed in. I even tried just screwing it in not being attached to the case. I'm not exactly sure what I'm doing wrong.
Update: Here are some pictures if it helps.
