Getting new M/B have a question

Have a new motherboard coming in tomorrow, is there a way to make the switch without formatting my hard drive?

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:
