Can you change motherboard and processor without having to reinstall vista home premium?

To change a motherboard without reinstalling Windows XP it is fairly simple. There are 2 methods: 1. Repair Method - Shut down Windows, replace motherboard, boot from Windows Install CD, select the Repair option, windows will replace your hardware profile and redetect all the hardware. Disadvantage of this method is that it takes a bit time and you might need to do the Windows Updates again as the repair usually replaces system files by the original ones in the CD. 2. No Hassle Method - Go to Device Manager, change the IDE controller to Standard Microsoft IDE Controler, shut down Windows, replace motherboard, start computer. Windows show detect your new hardware automatically and because it will not try to use your old motherboard IDE Controller you won't get a blue screen 99% of the time. It is possible you get the bluescreen for some other reason though and in that case just use the repair method.
