You will most likely have to upgrade your motherboard to a current
Core 2 Duo compatilbe design. (You did not say which motherboard
you have.) WHENEVER you change the motherboard that a harddrive
with the OS on it has been using, then you MUST reformat the
harddrive and do a fresh install of the OS.

Wrong regardless of how often you keep repeating this stupid claim.

Otherwise you can look forward to ongoing Registry errors and data corruption.

Mindless pig ignorant silly stuff. XP has a repair install for a reason.

Which DOESN'T ALWAYS WORK.

Irrelevant to that stupid absolute claim he made.

Why do you people always have to give
others the idea that this is ALWAYS possible?

Never ever said that. I JUST said that his absolute claim is just plain wrong.
