Why Reformat and Reinstall??? Tuesday, December 11, 2001 at 1:19 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Tom S (200 messages posted) Les, I can't imagine why you'd need to reformat and reinstall anything on the hard drive, when you change the motherboard. Shouldn't be a problem at all. On Sunday, December 9, 2001 at 3:13 pm, Les Guiblin wrote: >I wish to put a new motherboard in my PC.
