I have an Intel LX mobo that I am retiring. I have WinXP with all the
updates. What do I need to do to swap out mobos with a VIA Chipset? Do I
remove all the intel devices from the device manager, or just let XP do it
and swap the mobo. All the other stuff will be the same (hard drive, video,
CD etc.).

Thanks
Tom
