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...


And if it doesn't work (it doesn't always work), you resort to the
"repair install" method. That's what we're all trying to tell the guy!


Not all but just a few wackos unable to deal with the fact that an
alternative does exist.

Yes, I see all of your believers supporting you.

Have you considered holding your breath and stomping your feet until someone
agrees with you?

He'll pass out. Or his feet will get too sore to continue stomping.

Maybe they're all confusing XP with win98. With all the ****e those turds
spout, it' wouldn't be a surprise.

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".

To him, it has become a Holy Grail. Surely his flock of followers will save
him... before he loses consciousness. Let's hope he does in on the rim of
Kilauea.

Well, yes... there _is_ that. But, his last post said that the "wackos" that
didn't agree were "just a few." I wonder where they are.

Except for the folks who report it works here for them and the web is full
of more such folks and the "how to-s" so associated. Just the local fogger
trolls are troubled and that's not surprising as they been telling folks
that it can't be done. Such folks always go crackers when they are shown to
have been blowing frags for sometime. Such trolls always attack the poster
rather than cite any real support for their debunked assertions.

Notice how they form up into little troll packs. If one views their posting
history in Google Groups then what they are becomes apparent.

I hadn't bothered posting to this one because the guy obviously doesn't

want
to listen but just for kicks I'll put my vote in as well.
Repair install is the easiest least painful way to do a Mobo change unless
you get lucky and XP see's the Mobo on it's own.
There thats what like 20 votes for a epair install now? lol


The web is full of votes and "how to-s" otherwise as I've cited. The
accumulation of fogger trolls here has no meaning.
