I am upgrading from Celeron processor to Pentium 4 with a new motherboard. I
will be bringing the old hard drive along with my mouse, keyboard & monitor
to the new hardware.

When the time comes to finally boot up my new computer ... assuming I have
connected everything right, will my existing setting & files automatically
be recognized?

I am unsure of how things unfold after making a processor & mobo upgrade.
