So sometime later tonight I'll try and summon the will to actually screw the motherboard back down, and then go through the agonizingly tedious process of looking at the Engrish instructions and trying to figure out the pinouts for all the little peripheral connectors and lights and widgetry stuff. From experience that usually takes about a billion years and requires a hefty quota of foul language. After that though it's just connecting up the drives and power and closing up the case, and I'll finally get to find out that I forgot to do some stupid little thing that requires me to totally disassemble the whole bloody thing again.
I'm doing a really good job of convincing myself not to mess with it any more tonight...
We're like lazy brothers.
