I have bought new stuff, and I'm putting it together... and I got a new motherboard. Can I use my old hard drive without reformatting?

I believe you can, yes.
Not likely.
Only case where it MAY work is if you purchased a new motherboard that uses the exact same chipset as your current one. You will FOREVER have Driver and device Hiccups, crashes, and problems.

Not for your windows drive (you will need to re-format that one) but you can add it as a secondary drive without a reformat......
*sigh* Not more of your tech help threads
In answer to your question; Very unlikely... unless... no, still unlikely

My tech friend says he only had that prob with dell drives.... lol, but anyway.

You get the format option during the windows install.....just follow the prompts.
yes, during install, delete the old partition and then create a new one.ShotYourSix wrote:

Sober enough to know what I'm doing, drunk enough to really enjoy doing it
