I was going to rate myself at about a 6 point something, but since I fried my Radeon in a stupid watercooling accident I have self-relegated myself down to a 3.

Sorry Brainiac, but you are dead wrong.&nbsp; If you change your motherboard (go from a say, Dell->an Abit) you need to reinstall Windows, it&#39;s just a fact of life.

i said reformat, not reinstall. two completely different things. sometimes you can switch motherboards without reinstalling (i.e. you stuck with the same mobo/chipset brand), sometimes you&#39;ve gotta reinstall in order to get working drivers onto the HD (i.e. you switched brands)... but there are a lot of self-styled hardware "gurus" out there who will absolutely insist that you need to reformat and completely abandon the partition just &#39;cause you swapped a new mobo or video card in, and that&#39;s just ridiculous.

i&#39;ll just trust that you prolly misread that sentence.

rubric:

....

if this doesn&#39;t look fair, point that out

i kinda disagree with the premise that overclocking and experience with overclocking is the measure of how good a person is with computer hardware. there&#39;s a lot more to it than that, and there are plenty of people who are whizzes with hardware who&#39;ve prolly never overclocked at all.

as a hobby, yeah, overclocking and Xxtreme k00ling take a certain amount of learning & skill, but how important actually is that skill? it&#39;s just a hobby. being able to build & maintain stable workstations, servers and LANs, being able to resolve hardware conflicts without immediately resorting to a reformat, etc.... that&#39;s the kind of stuff you could actually get paid for. for example, if a person thinks he has to reformat his Windows drive just &#39;cause he changed his motherboard, then he ain&#39;t that good.

Sorry Brainiac, but you are dead wrong. If you change your motherboard (go from a say, Dell->an Abit) you need to reinstall Windows, it&#39;s just a fact of life. [/b][/quote]
You dont mate.

I just upgraded my sisters pc from a celeron 1.3 epox(3wtm via chipset) ,to amd 2600+tb shuttle(ak338n via)with no problems,no reinstll ,or format.

I am sorry, but there is no way you can take a hard drive, from, say, for the sake of arguement, off of my DELL, and plug it into big dawg&#39;s ASUS and expect to boot up Windows effectively.

That remains a fact of life.

Now it is no Michael Jordan manuever to move data from one hard drive to another; I do this all the time, whenever I perform a back-up. I hope that is what you are referring to. Or, you could mean a GHOST partition.

Edit: and Brainiac, it is good to see you around.

Since everyone is practically tearing their heads off, I just might try to cool things down B)

What happened clocker? How was that? You had a leak or something?
