Please take the time to write and spell correctly, I don't like trying to figure out the meaning of what's being said. I'm still a little unsure what you're trying to say, other than there's a problem with your motherboard tray? I have no idea what circular thing you're referring to. But a case's motherboard tray will always have screw hole positions for the types of motherboard that can be installed. You should be installing standoffs under each metal-ringed hole in the motherboard to ensure proper grounding and board position.

What is the make and model of the case? I'm sure we can figure out kind of what you mean when that is answered.

Hmm that is weird, does it say anything about it in the case manual?

 

[umarrehman187]

exactly well i could not put stand offs there so i jus screwed screws in...in the manual all it says is put motherboard in and screw,,,btw tht is an atx case where my motherboard is matx......but it seems to be running fine......however i did used stands offs where there were no circle things.

I have never seen that before, weird.

But yeah I guess that is the case supplied stand-off's and they were just setup for ATX. You did the right thing exactly by adding in the stand-off's where there were none for your board!!

Ok... only like the 2nd time I've seen something like a stand-off pre-built in a case. Never would've guessed that's what you were talking about lol. Good, you put the stand-offs in correctly.
Nice case, hope the re-build goes well.
