I just got a new computer from a computer that someone was going to throw away. It was a Dell Poweredge 400SC:
I took it because it is a very moddable case and it opens like this:
...Which is cool in itself.
Anyway, I ripped all of the dell junk out, drilled my own motherboard mounts (because dell used a locking mechanism not stand-offs) and mounted a Micro-ATX motherboard from a Sony Vaio. The computer runs fine when I have the side panel open. However the second I close it, Windows blue screens and the computer restarts. While starting up windows says it is missing files and won't start up. Mind you, all I did was close it. After careful observation I noticed that this only happens when only the top portion "clicks" into place.
Does anyone have any idea whats going on here?

By the way, I'll be doing some serious modding on this computer in the near future.
