Totally flat. So after screwing it, the motherboard pins at the back are touching the casing. Therefore my pc will never start,not even sound. After so many troubleshooting, i finally realise this problem. So how to rectify it? Right now, temporay, I am putting a piece of cardboard, cut from the casing box and put it at the back of the motherboard before i screw it. But the motherboard is slightly bend. I am afraid it might cause long term problem. Even my 5 yeears old capalang casing also has 4 mounted holes .
