You are going to need an ATX compatible case for most ATX motherboards. The
locations of the connectors for built-on ports (serial/parallel/keyboard, etc)
is different. In addition, ATX motherboards have the ability to automatically
shut off the power when you shutdown from Windows 95. An ATX case would have a
power supply that is compatible with this feature.
