PSU 24 pin won't plug into motherboard?

More problems: building my girl's computer, and I'm going to plug the PSU 24 pin (20 + 4) ATX connector into the board.

It won't snap in, won't even go more than half way in.

The board is a Gigabyte DS3 965G, and the PSU is one I've used in previous builds.. Powerstream 520W..


http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128018 is motherboard

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817711002 is power supply.

The ATX 24 pin is a pretty standard thing, isn't it? Any ideas why they won't plug together? Bent pins? Would I be able to RMA the MB/PSU because of this?

Any suggestions at all? Feel bad with my girlfriend's computer half-built..
