If I swap motherboard from a Apollo Pro 133 to a Apollo Pro 133a board,do I need to reinstall Win98? I'm sure there are few differences. I've got too much going on to do a whole reinstall this week.

it would probably be better to reinstall windows because changing boards no matter how little of a change nearly always creates driver drag and cripples your computer

You don't have to reinstall windows. Just make sure you delete all device drivers before you do or you could run into lots of trouble. There is no driver lag if you do it this way.
