New System, Old Drive


Recommended Posts


It's possible, but not really recommended. Chances are that it won't save you much time in the end, since you'll likely run into more troubleshooting by trying to transfer the drive from one system to another - as opposed to just starting fresh and formatting the system.

The only time that swapping a system from one motherboard to another is viable is when the chipsets are of the same family (Intel ICHx/ICHxR for example). Even then, you might run into snags that just end up causing you grief.
