changing chipsets and windows 8....

[pgi947]

Ok I derped on moving to z87 from x79...

My windows 8 install on my ssd is from an x79 install, would I get away booting to safe mode and then using the windows 8 utility to perform a clean install?

Haven't a clue where my windows 8 key is or where I stored the disc image

Cheers guys, I should have the key floating about in my inbox somewhere should I need it.

I just remember Windows 7 going completely mental when I moved from Z68 to X79

Sorted, was very very painless, got an 'updating system' screen up on first boot, took a few mins then I'm back in windows and everything is as I left it!
