I have an Intel D850GB with a 1.5Ghz P4. I need to upgrade because the 1.5
is painfully slow. When I manipulate things in my software the1.5 maxes out
for long periods of time before finishing. I have plenty of RAM so the proc
speed is the problem (or the buss speed). I would like to upgrade to some
newer Intel Chipset and an 800Mhz bus processor with hyperthreading. I
don't want to reformat and reinstall win2000 because i have a lot of stuff
installed. Has anyone been sucessful at upgrading a mobo and proc without
reinstalling win2000. I have read in several magazines that you need to do
a fresh install. Just wondering if there is something in the registry that
could be changed that would make win2000 redetect the chipsets and drivers
for same. Anyone else have a better idea?
Thanks.
