Just replaced hard drive, now my 12 inch Powerbook wabbles/rocks/lopsided! :-(

I had a non-wabbler Powerbook for 2 years now...

Replaced the hard drive and she's a MAJOR wabbler... damn damn!

Any suggestions? Take it apart again and loosen all the screws? (When I had it all apart I tightened everything down that was loose inside.)

Does the case looks deformed in any way?

The case was 100% perfect. The ONLY change putting it back together was this small gap.... less than 1mm thick. I tried getting it completly flush but I couldn't when putting it back together:

Yeah, try opening the case again and reassembling it making sure everything is fitting perfectly?
:S Nothing like this happened when I replaced my HD...

I just replaced my HD bout 2 weeks ago in my 12" with a 120gig 5400rpm i also tightened all screws (which many were loose) and have no problems

Best bet is to take it apart again to try and fix it.
