    I have got a Aspire X-Cruiser Case and have a couple of problems with it that I need to sort out,

    1) The door keeps closing half way everytime I open it, is there anything I can do about this?

    2) I have lost the thumb screws for the left panel of the case and now every thumb screw or normal screw I try does not fit securely. Any way I can get hold of these thumb screws.

    3) Not really a problem but I need to tidy the wires in my case, there everywhere and ive got way too much. Is there anything that i can buy such as something I stick in the bays where I can store all the excess wiring

    Thanks

    Problem number one. You got a cheap, poorly made case.

    Problem number two. You got a cheap, poorly made case. Improvise.

    My best advice is to get some zip-ties and wire-loom and get creative. I actually cut a hole in my motherboard tray on my Cooler Master Centurion to route wires behind the motherboard. I usually zip-tie stuff like extra cables and the extra length of the main cable to the inside of the drive bays. Or you can get stealthy and hide everything behind the drive bays.

    The best approach is to re-do your wiring completely. Make every line as direct as possible and route them out of the way to prevent impeding airflow.
