PlusView case Newbie question

[BCSeaMonkey]

Just got my PlusView 1000 case, I really like it! =) I have a newbie question though, I am trying to take off the front plastic piece, but the motherboard tray is in the way of one of the plastic push lock, is there a easier way to get that last lock pushed in so I can take off the front plastic cover? I am trying to take out the front 5 1/4 driver covers.

Thanks, also is harddrive fan controler necessary?

Try removing the right side panel completely, that may help 🙂

The 5.25 in. and 3.50 in. bay covers are snap in plastic pieces. Use a long skinny screwdriver to pop them out from the inside of the case, then twist out the metal tabs. Be careful what goes in the top 5.25 in. bay as it could keep the door from closing. DVD/CD devices should be fine in this bay.

The second question, I am confused. You want to know if a fan controller is needed for the hard drive fan? Well no it is not required, it could help with noise though. If you want to know if the hard drive fan holder (the plastic piece in the cage) is necessary, the answer is yes. But it can be removed to install a fan and have the cable run on the inside top of the cage.

I cant seem to get the door on the front back on. I don't think I broke it, but the top part won't fit in. Any ideas?

Try to keep the door perpendicular to the case, then depress the small tab (very close to where the door meets the case) to slide the upper over the pin.
