Current System:
Windows 7 Ultimate (x64) (build 7600)
Install Language: English (United States)
HP-Pavilion RK574AA-ABA a1730n
Enclosure Type: Desktop / uATX
Board: ASUSTek Computer INC. A8M2N-LA (NodusM3) 1.05
Processor: 2.40 gigahertz AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core
Bus Clock: 200 megahertz
128 kilobyte primary memory cache
512 kilobyte secondary memory cache
Multi-core (2 total)
Not hyper-threaded
NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT w/1GB VRAM
I'm upgrading (of sorts) to:
M4A78LT-M - uATX
AM3 Phenom II X6 1055T (Six-Core)
(Dual channel 4 DDR3 1800+ (O.C.) ; 8Gb RAM
2.8GHz
6 x 512KB L2 Cache
6MB L3 Cache
45nm
125W
HyperTransport technology
Integrated memory controller
AMD Virtualization
64-Bit
HDMI/DVI/RGB Interface Support
ASUS EPU
What I want to do is minimize reloading everything. Is it possible (reasonable, no-way José) to swap the MBs and fire it up without too much tinkering? They are both ASUS MBs. Could I clone and restore? Is that approach reasonable? Or, is it best to start cleanly? I do understand the issues re: licensing, etc. I will contact MS receive their 'blessing' one way or the other.
