Have a new motherboard coming in tomorrow, is there a way to make the switch without formatting my hard drive?
 
I wasn't sure if that info was needed, thanks. I have a Abit An8-sli right now and have an Asus A8n32-sli coming I also have a pair of corsair twinx2048-3500llpro, maxtor 250gb sata, opteron 144, and 2x evga 7800gtx ko in sli. thanks
 
Just install the mobo, try to boot to windows....it should just need new drivers. If you were on RAID 0, this would be a different story.

I'd still back everything up.
 
If you feel like it, back everything up (remember any saved games can be lost too... found that out the hard way... gotta start MOH: PA from scratch :thumbsdown: ). Since they are both Nforce4 chips though, you should be alright. Even the nforce driver is the same, so most likely all you'll need to do is let windows re-detect everything and re-boot. By the way, NICE SYSTEM!!! :Q :thumbsup:
