No Manual?

Talk about one of my favorite pet peeves.

I got my case a few days ago (Cooler Master CM Stacker) only to find that it doesn't come with instruction of any sort. Went to the website; the best I could find was a very brief faq: http://www.coolermaster.com/cm_files...ument_v1-3.pdf

I know this case Isn't meant for new builders; but they should have a full and detailed manual nonetheless. Does anyone know where I can find a guide specific to this type of case? (full tower)

What kind of problems are you having with the case? The wiring to the motherboard?

Most cases don't even come with instructions and the few that do have instructions, well they're very vague or very generalized instructions...the Cooler Master is no different than anything else out there.

I have the CM Stacker case, if you have any questions just let me know. As long as you don't have a BTX motherboard (you probably don't) it's relatively easy to install all the pc components into that case. If you don't have the manaul and are stuck I can always scan in the important pages for you, but first I have to find it (I misplace a lot of things) and second I have finals this week so It might be a little bit before I get to it.

i totally agree, i just built a rig like 3 days ago, the wires for the front LED's were really confusing, all that came with the case was this one sided page, it vaguely gives me some instructions. Luckily, i did some intense reading and experimenting and found out how to hook the cables up. I just have one BIG tip that u should watch out for. My case, it has a sliding tray..well if i wanna move the tray more to the I/o Plate i have to take off the screws on the other side..MAKE sure ya know that..i was wondering why i couldnt take out my DVD combo , then i learned that, it was a real pain, watch out for that.

I/O plate= the place where u hook up things in the back, ex: SOUND, Parallel/serial port, the printer connector, Firewire, USB etc.
