Well i dont see any problems with the rig, you can never keep up to date fully with computers. There is always better but you will
pay an arm and a leg for it and then it will be out dated in a month. But all in all for the price it will be a good Rig.
As for having to reinstall windows, as long as you uninstall all drivers for your MOBO, Video Card, Sound Card, and any other
component that you had hooked to your old computer you should be good to go. Just make sure to uninstall them befor
you put the harddrive in your new Rig.
What i would suggest is to install your harddrive and hope that it will let you in to back up the things you want.
If you can get them off there, then i would do a format and do a clean install of windows. Most of the time you can
put your old harddrive in a new computer and still get to windows but with complacations, the system will never run right
after that unless you format.
