I am going to upgrade a system wit Xp installed. Included
in the upgrade is a new motherboard ,processor, video
card and memory. How do I prepare XP to accept these
changes?
 
You do not! After completing the hardware upgrades, since you have changed
the mother, you will need to do a repair re-install of XP. The activation
needs to be reset.

In my experience I have never had a problem changing hardware, MBs, CPUs,
memory, video, etc. xp just figures it all out for you just fine as long as
you have all the current updates installed. I would be very hesitant to
"repair" a working system. If it ain't broke don't fix it. You have
nothing to loose.
