Hi People,

I am currently in the process of upgrading my M-Board and
processor from an old P111-600 system and Via M-board to
an AMD Athlon 2500 with an Asus nForce 2 M-board. I am
currently using Win XP-Pro at home under licence from my
work (we get to take home MS Packs of software goodies,
which we share under the terms of the agreement with M-
Soft).

Now, I have been told that when I try to boot up my new
gear Win_XP will recognize the new hardware but will
assume some funny business is going on vis a vis licensing
and thus will not work. How do I fix this? Do I have to
reload Win XP-pro? and what about all the updates and
service packs I have dowloaded to keep my confuser secure
and running sweetly?

Bit of a newbie, so any help appreciated.

Cheers, Phil.
 
Thanks for the quick reply Bruce. I looked up the URL you
kindly provided and I think I've got it sussed out.

Fingers crossed...with luck I'll be slaying 'em on
Battlefield 1942 instead of being the sitting duck I am
now ;-)

Cheers, Phil.
