Windows XP - Drive Arrangement

If I take out my mb, and install a new motherboard, and reinstall WINXP, will my drive letters stay the same? Or will I need to run fdisk again? I have my partitions set up how I like them, and two of my drives still have data on them. I am hoping I can just unplug my 3 hds, hook them into my new mb, and fresh install Windows XP, and have the partitions remain untouched.



 
If they do change, post back, I have the solution Piece of cake to arrange you drives in any fashion you want. With in reason of course.

 
windows xp can manage the drives real easy....

go to
settings
control panel
administrative tools
computer management
storage
disk management (local)
right click on the drive u want to change and select Change drive letter and paths

then change it to what u want!
easy!!!
