Hi, I am about to remove my abit BH6 w/BX chipset mobo & put in a DFI AK74 w/KT133 chipset. I run win98se. What should I remove in device manager (if anything) before installing the new board. I am mainly concerned with system devices & the hard disk controllers. I DO NOT want to format & re-install if at all possible.

Thank you, RT

do u have ghost ? u can save a image before doing stuff..

I have done successfully several time, put the drive in new computer, boot safe mode and install windows on top of it , it'll automatically remove all the crap but NOT your programs and install the correct drivers, when it finish, just all ur VIA & if necessary video drivers..
