I busted a capacitor off my motherboard on accident. It's a gigabyte P35, I was going to pick up a P45 motherboard at microcenter, since that is all they carry.
Few questions :
1) Will my raid stay in tact on my raid card - 3ware 9650SE-8L ? That is where my OS is, and a large raid 5 array
2) Would I have to sysprep, or just let windows 7 pro reinstall everything?
3) Will ANY PCIe16x slot work for my raid card? No desktop boards have 4x slots, and I need a 16x for the raid card. It works great in my current P35 16x slot, but never did in my Abit 16x slot.
