| AMD to Intel Going to go from the M2NSLI Deluxe to a Intel P5k with Vista Ultimate what are my chances on getting away with the swap with out a clean install and my next question is i have a complete back-up image but i have never did a complete backup before do i change the motherboard and then install vista ultimate and then do the image backup from the other install to get all my setting and programs back or is this just a wast of time.

| I am betting the backup won't work at all given that it apparently was made with Vista backup. If made with Acronis, then I'd say you'd have a fighting chance. You could always get Acronis for a safety valve. But, regardless, I'd plan for trying all alternatives. First, I'd try to get the backup working on what apparently is a new (or different) drive. I'd try it first without installing Vista freshly. Here, you might have to use Vista Boot Pro to get the drive to boot. If this approach doesn't work, then I'd try installing Vista first. You can always try some more after the new mobo is in.

| Last swap i did before I shut down I reinstaller any drivers that were not going to be the same on the other board like HD drivers, sound, nic, and the such and it went off very good all I had to do was set the boot sequence correctly in the bios. I would also try a repair install also but a clean install is probably the best way to go just change the board and cpu of coarse back up all info from c drive boot with the least amount of hardware 1 drive 1 stick of ram and 1 dvd rom and go from there with a clean install i also will be doing the installs of software this way install a program and then defrag then do another and defrag and on and on some of said this works better for getting the drive set up for faster seek times. I can't wait to get the E8400 and the new board never liked AMD which is alright but just not as crisp or quick as my E6750.

| Do you find this common problem: when you buy Warhammer powerleveling, but suddenly the account not login in, and at this time the seller will ask the website to contact the buyer and inquire he make sure the account and password.However, when the customer service contact the buyer, often finding the calling not dial through. This lead to Warhammer online power leveling delayed. At this time, how to deal it?Aiming to this problem, I suggest you would better leave one another call when you buy War power Leveling. if so you can be contacted and ensure you power leveling doing smoothly.The second solving way is to keep you mobile open all day or correct your account and password when you buy it.Professions have undergone a lot of changes since WoW began. Most recently, in Burning Crusade, crafting professions were typically a good way to obtain surprisingly high-quality items that you couldn't get any other way, such as Stormherald or the Frozen Shadoweave set. So far we haven't seen any evidence of directly parallel itemization in World of Warcraft Power Leveling, and according to a couple of recent posts by Verimonde, we're not going to. Specifically, Verimonde said that "There will not be a Stormherald type weapon 'high level crafter only,'" although there are, for instance, several BoE epic smithed weapons in the process of WoW Power Leveling. In his second post he explains the reasoning a little more: Blizzard didn't like that many people were picking professions based on what would make them the most powerful, as opposed to what they enjoyed. |
