Hello guys, so I'm about to get a new motherboard which is this one

www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128565
Mobo Model: GA-78LMT-USB3

and I was wondering would I have to reinstall Windows right after I put in this motherboard in? I'm hearing that there are some ways to bypass that. Please inform me if you do or don't.
Thanks

The previous hardware (motherboard) would need to be similar for you to get as far as reconfiguring drivers. If the previous hardware is not similar, then you will need to do a fresh installation of Windows.

I have Windows 8 and aparently I can just "refresh" my PC which basically just means to reset the OS keeping everything I have on my Hard Drive. Could I just do that?
