[64] No need for clean install after new Mobo?
Hi all
Just upgraded my main computer which was running Vista 64bit.
It had an AM2 socket board and 2 GB of ram, I changed it for an Intel core2duo with 4 GB of ram. After the hardware change I thought I'd see what happened if I tried to boot it with the old HDD install which had just been upgraded to SP1. To my surprise it booted up fine and within 5 minutes the drivers were installed and it worked perfectly. I've since done a clean install, but I used it like that for a couple of days and it worked great.

I have read:

Fed up with UK 0870 Phone Numbers
Backup Boogaloo, you know it makes sense to do.
