This is my first build. I'm about 2 minutes into Logan's video on how to build a computer, and he's installing the standoffs. So, first one I screw in is fine, goes in all the way. The next THREE I try only go in about half way. I'm using all the same standoffs that I had gotten out of the box from fractal. I don't know if it's a problem or not. HELP! D:
screw them out, and then screw them back in, you might of miss threaded it.
I've done that a couple times.
Oh god, I can't even get one out now.
check to make sure the threads are not messed up, if they are, dont use them..
I have to use all the standoffs, right?
you have to use all the apropriate standoffs for your motherboard theoritcally, but you could in theory do it with only a few but it might break very easily :/
Oh my god, I feel incredibly stupid right now. I just noticed that with my Fractal Design Arc Midi R2, They include a thumb tool to help you with the standoffs. Fixed.
