Yesterday I posted a query about replacing the motherboard on a system
running XP pro. It is not shown in- ms.windowsxp.general newgroup.
********************
I seem to have a failing motherboard on a system running Windows XP pro. XP
pro was originally installed as an upgrade to Windows 98 SE. Should I use
the proceedures of note #824125 for replacing the motherboard on a Computer
running Windows 2000/Server 2003?
The alternative is reinstall everything onto a disk which lacks the Windows
and Program files directories.
Per 824125: I would begin with install using the XP upgrade CD - turning off
the computer as it begins to restart, replace motherboard, and allow the
upgrade to continue, finally reinstall service packs and hot fixes. Will I
then need to reinstall application software?
