new motherboard and windows 2000

[Guest]

I'm going to install a new mobo in my computer.
Do I have to reinstall my windows or can I just delete everything in the device manager, shutdown, change motherboard and hope that everything is detected?

Hope is one thing you can do, but I'd suggest you just reinstall anything!

It should work, without you changing anything, but complete re-installation is highly recommended.

Hope for the best, prepare for the worst. Start backing up now.
