When you change a motherboard, you must then do a repair install of XP.
I assume that it is the same for Vista.

Hi Clive,

The only way of getting your system to function again is to reinstall
everything. Apologies if this is a bit of a harsh blow, but your problem is
caused by incorrect drivers for your storage devices - the only way to have
avoided this would be if you replaced like for like, ie the same brand and
model of motherboard and possibly also the same BIOS revision.
