Angry New Build

Hi,
I have a Cyber power tower,plenty of space.
My new motherboard is a ECS 6100SM-M2, with Athlon dual core 4200.
My problem is that I cannot get the mounting holes in the motherboard to match up with any mounting holes in the metal backplate, even if I move the mounts around different positions allowed for on the back plate.
Any suggestions please

Thanks jelly bean that was quick.
Im afraid I cant I bought this in the US about 5yrs ago.It has a detachable motherboard plate that is 26cmW x 32cmH I suppose as a last resort I could drill holes and move the mounts but Not if there is a better answer.
Thanks

you can use Photobucket

Take picture,join photobucket its free.

upload pics to there then copy n paste link from below the uploaded pic.Use the direct link adress.

Like this http://i112.photobucket.com/albums/n...1/DSC00049.jpg

Are you sure the clips cannot be moved around in there without drilling any thing?

Hi jelly bean.
None of the clip spaces correspond with the motherboard. there are only 4 mounting holes in the motherboard at the corners, they will not mate with any places on the plate.
I have the pics in photobucket! having trouble geting them to you, bear with me
