     I suggest you ask in the PC Mech forums Lise. I very much doubt that you need to replace the motherboard; but if you do and it’s only 6 months old then I suggest that you take it back to where you purchased it.

   Just a note: Some cases have raised screw-holes, which removes the necessity for spacers.
