thank you very muchDo i have to re-install xp if i change the motherboard of a pc?It will be easier on you if you do a fresh install. If you don't you will end up with duplicate drivers installed on the computer that can cause resource conflicts.
You could run a repair, but that takes just as long as a fresh install, and you will see more benefit from a fresh install anyhow.Do i have to re-install xp if i change the motherboard of a pc?No, you don't need to reinstall your OS.

You dont need to do a fresh install either.Do i have to re-install xp if i change the motherboard of a pc?No you don't have to do anything. It will work fine after the replacement of your motherboard.
Fresh Install is that you load your operating system after formating your C drive.
