These instructions are for the 'Fiat' and 'Lantra' style eMachine cases.

As some of you may know, Emachine computers come from the factory with "proprietary" motherboards, meaning only the Trigem style board will fit the case. This can be overcome with just a few of modifications.

Depending on the aftermarket motherboard, the 2 small "pins" may have to be removed, but is highly recommended (see Pic 1)
 

Secondly, the wiring for the power on switch must be modified. The blue and yellow wires are used for the power switch and it doesn't matter which direction they are installed because the switch is not polarized. None of the other wires have to be used, but if you want to use them check out the schematic for a breakdown on this (see Pic 2)
 

Thirdly, depending on the mobo, the I/O plate will have to be modified as well (see Pic 3)

One other thing, if you want to retain the location of the front USB/game port, that will have to be modified as well, seeing how none of the non-OEM mobos have a direct plug in for it.

One other thing I did to this case, was add a reset switch, but this is strictly optional.
