Here's the project:

Will this MSI MS-6741 mobo:

Fit into this Verna case?

Here is the inside:

You only have about 11.5" to work with side-to-side, but that's not the problem as you will soon see.

First step, see the 2 pins in this pic:

They need to be removed:

Like this.

Second step, fit the mobo:

Won't fit going in bottom to top....

RAM sockets hit the floppy cage.

How about going in side to side:

Dammit!!

Capacitor is hitting the floppy cage.

I haven't given up.......yet, but this is where I stop. The MS-6741 is 9.5" wide, the original Trigem mobo is about 9.0" wide. So obviously a narrower mobo should fit or one with a different layout of components may fit. If any one has gotten a non-OEM (Trigem) mobo to fit in the Verna case, I'd like to hear from you!
