Hi Guys,
I feel I should be really embarrased to even ask this question but, well, I'll do it anyway ...
I'm overhauling my PC shortly (new mobo+CPU+ram, etc) but will be keeping my hard drives (got 2: one for the o/s and one for 'back ups'.) I'm currently running Windows XP.
If i still wish to continue to use my currently installed XP (together with all the programs which are installed on it) during the 'build' process will I have to reformat the hard drive at any stage? Or will it just be a case of ensuring the new BIOS configuration boots the system from the hard disk, or something like that?
Any thoughts please do let me know!
Many thanks!
