yah...

i should have post this 3 weeks ago... when i bought the new mobo...

It's like this... the casing i now using is 4-5 yrs old... the hole fits well with the old p4s533 mobo... but now, the Asrock dual-SATA2 mobo's holes are slightly shifted... i can only screw 2 holes... others i leave it unscrewed... i know this is dangerous but i don't have a choice lol...

you guys have any advices?

if the standoff are flexible enough, you may be able to get a few mm of shifting out of it, else use cable tie?
