Antec P150 Problem with Fit of Video Card and A8N-E

We, my sister and I, built a PC for her using the Antec P150 case, ASUS A8N-E, Evga 6800GS.
The problem is the video card fit in the PCI-E slot. Of course, we snapped off the PCI-E white plastic lever on the mobo. Right now, we have a piece of paper wedged underneath the card to get it to work right. If we use the connecting screw on the card on the bracket, we get no video. Anyone eles have any fit problems with this case or mobo?
It looks like that even if the lever on the PCI-E was there, it would not affect the height of the card. Thanks
 
There have been issues with this, yes. I had a similar experience, I couldn't fit a PCI card in one of the slots, but moved it to a different one and it was fine. No real rhyme nor reason to it.

There's a pretty thorough thread on this problem, if you do a search you may be able to find it.

Case.

Unfortunately I'm using mine as the main rig right now, threw it together fairly hastily. I never went into the construction of the case to see where the problem may be coming from.

If you want to put forth the effort, it may be worth it to disassemble your rig and see how the motherboard tray is mounted to the frame. I seem to remember there being a strange clipping system that might throw it off kilter.
