Nick,
The KPA100 board is a bit tight on the screws, but will fit (albeit just
barely) if it is held always parallel with the heat sink - but it
usually is not - there may also be a tiny bit of a curve to the board
which makes it more difficult.
Just push it on, pushing at each screw location a bit at a time and when
it is time to remove it, pry it up with a wide flat blade screwdriver or
similar tool (look under the board to be certain the blade does not
contact any of the capacitors mounted on the bottom).
It gets easier every time it goes on and off, but I have never found one
that slips off easily.

I am trying to fit the PC to the heat sink but there is not a neat match of
set screws to holes in the PC. No problems in screwing the set screws into the
heat sinks (i.e. certainly not cross-threaded) but there is a tiny mismatch. I
am very very reluctant to use any force (and I have to get it back off anyway).
Anyone else have this problem and any suggestions? Maybe a comment will make a
change from K3 frenzy (and yes it does look great!)
