You shouldn't need a re-format if all you're changing is the motherboard and the processor. If anything the operating system might have a kink or two. This one time, I put my laptops hard drive into another laptop and while it booted just fine, some of it's drivers didn't want to work with the new system (specifically the graphics drivers). I could still see things fine, but the system wasn't using the graphics card to display. I'm sure this could be fixed by downloading new drivers; I didn't attempt to fix it because I was just extracting some files. But yeah, you should be good to go as is.

I love your comments....they always make me feel better.

You know you should really think about posting on your journal since it's been awhile, don't you think?
