Hello
I'm replacing my current motherboard which is on its way out, which is an ASUS M4A3000E (M4A78 LT M LE) motherboard. The motherboard is a 760g chipset with SB710 (has to be, as although the ASUS website says 780g the manual says its the M4A78 LT M LE, which has a 760g). It is being replaced with a Gigabyte GA78 LMT USB3, which uses pretty much the same chipset. What I want to know is do I have to do anything to Windows? I'm willing to use sysprep, as I'd rather not reinstall everything, and I know I'll probably have to reactivate windows too. All I want to know is whether I can get away with plugging in the new motherboard without Windows 7 throwing a hissy fit? Or is sysprep in order?
Thanks for any help
