If your getting restarts after upgrading the CPU, I would seriously look at
the heatsink and fan to ensure it is seated proplerly. Also make sure you
havnt dislodged any other components whilst in there.
With regard the format, if all you have changed is the cPU, you shouldnt
need to re install windoze.

NO.

And I always wonder why people reformat -
even after changing motherboard.
