Really?

I have swapped quite a few motherboards with XP Pro.

When XP restarted it detected all the new hardware and installed (or
asked for) any new drivers that were needed.

Never had a problem...


Yep, that's what many report even when the mobos use different
chipsets. If the multiprocessor and/or ACPI situation chnages then
things aren't quite that easy but still tractable.


BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!!!

I'm trying to gather more information from folks on exactly what works
transparently and what needs a like help with respect to HW changes.


Real meaning: The ****wit needs to do more research before he'll correct his
"guess".
