Would going from an intel to an amd board and obviously a new cpu, require a reinstall of windows?
please say, no it should be fine...

Also if you dont have the original disc for your operating system that is the other reason to do what i stated above, only thing i am not to sure about if you well be asked to activate again because of the major change ie motherboard.

i do have the disc (windows7 64 btw) so would i have to ring microsoft to activate it again?
