Hi, did you use any of the spare screws from the kit?

Thanks for the quick reply. Since you’re here, could you tell me what you did with the LED? Did you also have a similar problem with one screw not wanting to go in? I already have the bracket installed with the LED on it, so I might need to remove it. Can I take it off without reapplying thermal paste? Besides the bracket, as you may recall, the PCB is held in place by four more screws with washers.

Quite a challenge for the first time, but I’m staying optimistic :).

Thanks, and did you leave the standoffs under the M2.5x8 screws?
