Well, you have a solution and a plan then.  It's annoying but nothing's lost but time.

Are you certain that you used the correct bolts and followed the instructions properly?

Those mounting brackets usually come with 2 different sets of screws (?) and you have to be sure that you used the correct one. 

Occassionaly visits the forum when I have nothing to do at work.

So, just by looking at it, I would say you take those side brackets off, put the cooler on the CPU, and the edge of the brackets fits into those slots on the cooler. That's just with me eyeballing it though.  I haven't read the manual.  Do the brackets line up with the grooves in the top of the plate?

The mounting rails go on top of the cooler not under it. Thats why it has that rail in the metal and the hole for the bolt there.
