I'm building a new system with an Intel Q6600 and a Gigabyte mobo. The old
system which is still working has an AMD 64 processor running XP Pro. Can I
just pull and re-install the old hard drive into the new system and it'll
boot? Or is a complete windows XP re-install in my future?
It might work. You will at the very least need to run a "repair
install". If that works, all your programs will still be there and
should be working.
