Hi all, I currently have the HP p7-1245. unfortunately, the motherboard cpu pins were bent. I am replacing it with an Asus H61M-A. What do I need to do after I replaced it? Do i need to worry about drivers, reinstalling windows, etc? thanks!

I changed my motherboard and CPU and didn't need to do anything other than install the new motherboard drivers. Are you keeping the same processor?

Then I'd just back up everything just in case. Once you back everything up swap out the motherboard and see what happens!

I would just install all the drivers that are on the motherboard's download page on the motherboard's website. It doesn't take long at all
