    Hello All,

    I just got a new motherboard and before I do anything I have a question.

    After I switch motherboards do I need to reload the OS.
    I'm running Win2000 pro.

    Thank You

    You shouldn't have to reload the OS. Hopefully Win2k will load any new drivers it needs and or it'll ask to insert the disk or cd that came with the mobo.

    Best to first remove hardware in Device Manager - to get the settings out of the registry - and then reinstall in new board.
