Re: Moving Windows XP installation to new mainboard

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

You can try a win repair installation, I've generally found that works,
installing the new drivers from media as required

My board got damaged. It is a permanent damage.
My goal is to move this windows installation to new board
without having to reinstall it.

Warranty is over.
However, the producer is offering a replacement.

Replacement offer is also for Pentium 4 family, supporting FSB up to
800MHz.
It has exact the same SATA controller - good for my intention.
Although as a separate chip on the board. Not integrated in the south
bridge
as on my damaged board.
LAN, FireWire and Audio controllers are also the identic.

Only the north and south bridges are different: ATI 9100 GPI + ATI IXP 150
instead of SiS 655TX + SiS 964.

1. How smooth can be the migrate process in this situation ?
Advantage - same SATA controllers - I guess I should expect any probs in
this context.
2. But, how about the AGP controller ? North bridges are different.
3. Can this be a problematic point ?

4. Any point else to be checked before starting the migration ?

It is hard to get P4S800D-E Deluxe as a second hand.
5. Do you know any good source for a search ?
