Cut your wrist with the card. The blood will catalyze an electrochemical reaction that will make sure the slot will be perfect when you try again.

seems odd....is your mobo correctly aligned in the case??? My friend did the same thing but he was trying to jam an PCI card in an AGP slot lol

Cheap case? I have one that is my sons that I have a bitch time with the card to go into the slot and couldnt screw the mobo down all the way so I could push it upwards towards to card to have it go into the slot all the way.

You gotta cut it with a saw.

there are usually tabs in the case where the metal part fits into on the PCI card. Make sure that is lined up with that notch in the case.

Are you sure have a PCI card going into a PCI slot? Make sure you actually have the right equipment? Otheriwse, it sounds like a problem with the alignment of the mobo in regards to the case, as several have mentioned already.

Just push it REALLY hard.

If it snaps, too bad.

Are you sure it's not somebody's butt-crack?

If it helps any, my mobo is an MSI K8NGM2 MicroATX inside an Antec HTPC case

pix?

Ill take some right now...

sometimes they just fit awkwardly with the case. the metal part is hanging it up probably, you may have to bend it a little to seat right

Maybe you're trying to put a PCI-Express card into a PCI slot or vice versa?
