same question in a different post. There are some who try this, and manage it successfully, however the general consensus is to re-install the OS, to avoid potential driver related issues.

In general when replacing a major component like a mainboard you need to do a re-install of Windows. I have never seen a mainboard transplant go well with out re-installing short of replacing the board with the same make/model.
