I also recevied my MSI Pro2A today. My question is whether or not I should be
putting some type of plastic spacer between the mounting screws and the actual
board? ANy help would be appreciated. Thanks...

gittyup, If im understanding you correctly NO you dont need any plastic spacers. Just make sure you have either plastic OR metal spacers. In other words just dont lay the motherboard down flat on the case side. You have to use some type of spacers either metal or plastic. I prefer metal myself.

Yes, the case hase 6 brass/or bronze spacers that are screwed into the case to make sure
that the board is moved away from the wall. I just wasn't sure if I needed any plastic spacers
between metal. Basically on either side of the mounting holes on the board. Apparently, that is
not the case. Thanks...:D

NP, Your on top of it now! :) I hope to have my MSI Pro2A running by the end of the week. It just arrived today too. Have to finish studying for a test first!
