Just installing a P4C800-E Deluxe in a case at the moment,

The manual says "place 9 screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis"

But I notice on the motherboard there are 10 screw holes, is there any reason not to use all 10 screw holes?
The extra screw hole is by the PCI ports.

Thanks

No. It's probably just a misprint. Use all the holes.

Hi,
Thanks for reply.

No, I dont think it's a misprint as there is a photo too, showing 9 screw holes highlighted, and the 10th is not.
But I do think I will use all 10 holes.

Thanks again
 
When mounting a motherboard, I simply use whatever's there, in the way of mounting holes. I've never actually looked at the manual for that sort of thing. Just line up the holes. You shouldn't have any problems doing that.
