Do i need to install new OS?

[kram2803]

I got my new components mobo, cpu and ram. Just wondering if I need to a fresh OS install or i can just plug my HDD which already has windows 7?

If your old PC is still working, go in to device manager and program&features, then delete or uninstall everything to do with the motherboard.

I didn't install the mobo's software though so I wouldn't know what to delete. my old mobo was Asus P7P55D-E PRO.

I tried to old up my old Windows 7 and it give me BSOD.

Is there still a trial for Windows 8? mind sending me the link please.

Edit: Anyone still sticking with Windows 7?

some chipsets will let you get away without re installing but some wont,they just bsod

idk what board your updating to? so far ive had no issue going from and z68 to z77,but I think x58 to z68 I had issue's

windows 7/8 usually sorts out the needed drivers for you ect

Im now using H87-HD3 Gigabyte.
