Great video, thanks. Your camera angle when removing the motherboard is perfect!

I also did this last year. I changed my motherboard only, but same cpu. I encountered no issues. I also tried copying the entire hard drive onto another (including windows). It booted just fine, maybe you can try that too.

So glad to see that windows 10 works with a different motherboard. thank you for the video. this will save me time to reinstall for my new computer, (CPU or motherboard not working anymore. upgrade to new system)

just the information I need, been looking for this everywhere. thank you.

Hi @CyberCPU Tech, Thanks alot for this guide, after assembling the new parts i just plug in my hard drive and everything works fine, It booted up right away ! Kudos for this video :)

This is great! I have been out of the game for a while and but now that is time to upgrade my old rig this is perfect!! will give a go but first doing a full backup just in case!!

This is what I needed to hear. I already have a 64 bit Windows 10 installed so I guess I'll fine when updating. The PC strated to reset itself whenever and I already tried changing the PSU. The CPU is 10 years old already anyway. Thanks for sharing this

I cannot tell you how much I am relived to know I dont have to back up anything or reinstall windows. I've watched other videos on what to do because I am purchasing another one and all the others have been saying to go thru a whole process. Kudos to you for demonstrating it and letting everyone know

thank you so much imm about to upgrade from i7 4790k to a ryzen 7 3800xt and i have had old system for about 7 years i didnt wanna restart on a fresh windows install and loose years of tuning my desktop and just my setting for thing this helps so much i have 64 bit windows 10 so from this video and this being the only one to actually show you and explain what happens THANK YOU!!!!

It works perfectly for me on 64 bit 😬 Thanks!👌🏻

hey man, it happens. lol. happens to the best of us. great video. very helpful and great step by step instruction. thx

Sir, great video. I am a little bit afraid though, I upgraded my system (motherboard, cpu cooler, tower, psu, ram) and I want to move my ssd( i have windows 10 in my ssd) and hdd to my upgraded system, should I do something before plug it in or shove it just the way it is?

Nice video. Good job.

Thanks for the video. Exactly what I was looking. Liked and Subed!

I'm upgrading my mobo this weekend, that's assuming Fedex is on time. Switching to a Aorus Z390 Ultra, this information saves me a bunch, thank you.

xD this is gold!! ajajajaja it was a fail yes but it was cool to watch thnks man

Very interesting! so would I be alright upgrading from a Windows 11 OS on my M.2 currently installed on a z370 motherboard and 9700k processor to a brand new z790 motherboard and the new 14700k later on this fall!?

I have a question. Will replacing my dead motherboard require me to reinstall windows? Would I need a boot drive? and if so how can I get around this.

Honest video😂 nice ending, gonna upgrade my PC with ryzen 5600xt and rx 6700🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Brother you explain so nice and clear.thank u so much.so so nice man.i will change my motherboard tomorrow just waiting ddr3.and same.ssd lets see.

I was expecting something else😂😂😂😂 Never expected the reason will be 32bit. Nice to know though. It means you've done it enough to encounter this. ❤️

Just subscribed, if you have been doing computers for twenty years do you remember the pc case coolmaster cm stacker 830? I want to use this case for a modern build, it's New I never used it, with a modern motherboard ryzen 9 5900x and a msi 550 mag tomahawk motherboard, Question is can this be possible or will the usb and other be so outdated on the pc case that it's just better to buy a modern pc case? thanks in advance

Im planning to upgrade my a320 mobo to Rog b550-f gaming wifi II and my cpu from r5 2600 to r5 5600x, should i be worried for blue screens? I mean i will be using the same M.2 ssd with the OS installed in it and everything. Would i get problems if i upgraded those without really formatting the ssd?

hey! love this video i have a pc wondering if i can switch the b360 gaming plus motherboard without deleting anything or reinstalling windows. I have win10 64bit installed to my NVMe m.2 970pro plus also solid state ssd, 1tb hdd . just want a another motherboard so i can overclock . at this point whats the best thing to do and which mothoerbord is best to overclock cpu for i7 8700k and not have to reinstall anything but only the motherboard drivers ?

Thank you. I am replacing my motherboard, and this video helps a lot.

Do I have to completely reinstall windows? I did the keeps apps but lose setting one when I upgraded from intel to amd and I’m still getting system freezes that last like 10 seconds

awesome video,soo i was wondering.......if i had to swap to a new ryzen 7 3000 series (also mobo) and i have actually a ryzen 5 2000 , by the moment they both run on windows 64 bit, should it work fine?

Quick question, I’m upgrading the motherboard in my pc. From the videos I’ve watched, I think I’m sure of what to do but as far as windows goes do I need to back anything up or can I just go ahead with the switch and it’ll boot up like normal?

I have a i5 9600k and a rtx 2060 and I wanna swap the i5 and the motherboard for a amd motherboard and cpu. But I don’t want to get a new hard drive I wanna use the same hard drive can I do that ?

I’m green here so please be gentle lol, I have to replace my motherboard on my asus g20aj, replacing with a OEM board. Do I need to do the drivers and everything? I’m putting in an upgraded cpu at the same time and a SSD. (Dropped the old cpu removing it onto the cpu pins and snapped 2 🤦‍♂️)

my only issue is that my new custom gaming setup is still haunted by the prebuilt pc i pulled my cpu from ie. it still feels like my acer tc-875 not the asus b560m it is in now

I have like a really old generation of motherboard and changed it today to a bit higher one, gigabyte B450m and a ryzen 5 3500X and I'm still trying to find a good ram Do I need to like install something ? Please help 😢

I have HP Elite 8200 sff computer but I can only replace with a I5-3400. How can I replace the HP motherboard with a new motherboard that can handle a longer CPR

Urgent question: do you have to do this if you are getting the same model motherboard

I moved an SSD/windows 10/64 to a brand new build. Booted right up. Didn’t even have to reactivate the oem version although I did link it to my MS account. Weird though in device manager it shows the SSD is not connected even though it clearly is.

In a better case scenario, would the old drivers from the previous motherboard automatically be deleted after the installation of the new drivers for the new motherboard?

does this work if you switch to a new cpu and motherboard ? will everything still be there ?

You sir are amazing. Ty for your time making this video. It has helped me alot with my own PC issues. Am gonna be updating from a 1080ti to a 6900xt and already had to replace my power supply and case to fit in the new parts today I found out that my mother board does not support pci 4.0 so am replacing it today when the store opens and I didn't want to have to wipe my drive to a new install. You are the only person to upload such a detailed video. THANK YOU SO MUCH FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART.

Thanks for this video. If you could please answer a question for me. I plan to upgrade CPU and Motherboard and use the same GPU. All 64bit. I thought I would have to activate windows 10 after the upgraded. But it’s all plug and play?? Thanks.

I’m replacing my motherboard with one exactly the same, should I encounter any issues when turning my pc back on after I’ve replaced it?

Some people say that you have to uninstall all intel-based drivers, or it won't boot. I plan on using my current OS drive in an AMD Ryzen 5000 series 8 core system from an Intel 7th gen i5. But put into an entirely new computer albeit with the same GPU. Everything I have seen tells to uninstall the intel drivers or you'll be hunting for solution to problems for weeks. I had no issues going from an older duo core from like 2010 to the 7-gen intel in 2017 except windows 10 didn't activate because for some reason it wouldn't for reasons, I fixed but cannot tell how I did it or why it did this, but it wouldn't upgrade to newer builds of Windows 10. So, I couldn't do the activation wizard where its first question is. did you change hardware? All you have to answer is yes and it activates. This should work in 2022. I have a 64bit OS so I shouldn't have the problem you had. Does having a TPM active and secure boot on effect the ability for the OS to operate on the different hardware?

One thing can u help .so if same ssd .can i uninstall old driver

I'm planning on getting a new motherboard but with the same CPU. should I back my stuff up and if I should would it have to be an external drive or could I just back it up on an internal drive that isn't full

one question, i have an i7 4th gen (office pc) and its in a low profile case and mother board, i wanna use the same cpu to a regular size mother board but doesnt wanna install anything since i dont have a windows cd, will it work? kinda new as well, thanks in advance

u did great my man

Im about to upgrade my motherboard and cpu. I have the 64 bit windows. So i will be ok just turning the pc on after the swap?

Thakful sir

I was in a rush because of poor planning and my system won’t boot windows. I went from intel to AMD and I can’t seem to get a detection. What should I do?

Did you have to remove the old motherboard drivers. I’m swapping from an ASUS Z490 e-gaming to a Z590 Airbus Elite ax and I wanted to know if I had to remove the z490’s drivers before the swap?

Thank you

Really good stuff. Would it work if I changed the mobo and cpu?

well done

Where can you find all the inactive drivers afterwards to delete them?

So I’m upgrading from a i5-6600k with a z170 -a motherboard to a i7 10700k with a z490 -e motherboard would this be the same in my circumstances?

All i get is differing error codes when attempting to swap. Idk whats going on

This is for anyone watching this video today in 2022. i'm going from an intel i7-7700k --> AMD Ryzen 7 5800k. Installing a new CPU, MOBO, and RAM. Curious if after i've backed everything up to my HDD, if i can just boot everything up on my SATA SSD (my boot priority right now) and be good to go? I'm on Windows 10, and have my windows access activated with a digital license LINKED to my Microsoft account. Should be able to boot it up, and log into my Microsoft Account/Onedrive correct? (From the comments it seems JUST that easy. But before leaving the BIOS after first bootup, is there anything somebody recommends?) Would you recommend downloading the following to a flashdrive to install IN THE BIOS LATER, before adding in my new hardware?: MOBO: -Latest BIOS Version -LAN/Audio/VGA/Utilities/SATA Driver -Chipset Driver Appreciate any and all help. First time switching to AMD chipsets!

hi, i bought a second hand cpu motherboard and now i need to shift my gpu and hard drive and ssd to it. i have been holding it for 2 months worrying that if i shift i might have no computers for days. do i need to prepare something beside backing up my files on my old computer? ( both is 64 bits)

To anyone reading this, hope it helps. I Upgraded my system today without reinstalling windows on my old SSD and everything works fine at one go. Previous Specs: Gigabyte A320M Ryzen 5 3400g Current Specs: Asus A520M Plus Ryzen 5 5600 Sapphire RX6600 I just pulled out the old SSD *deactivated TPM2.0* and Put in the new PC and it worked perfectly fine windows did the driver installation itself and I was already good to go. Just at the first time booting it takes about a couple of minutes to boot (Probably due to driver install and many new component configuration)

Great video! My Win10 64bit X470 PC quit suddenly with No Video out from the graphics card and onboard graphics, no POST beeps.. yet it looked like it was trying to boot since I had normal Drive LED activity and Good PSupply voltages, so I got a new replacement MB and swapped my CPU, DDR4, Fans, and M2 C: drive etc into it last night and am about to try booting it up.. Sadly I noticed the Ryzen 7 MB I got is an Asus x570 but the X470 I’m replacing is actually an MSI x470.. so all the drivers will be different. I do have the product Keys and would like to ask .. do you think Win10 will boot up to a point it’ll let me install the proper new MB drivers from the CD ROM that came with the new MB? I’m hoping the Original M2 drive with my Win10 on it can boot .. should It? An update as of 1 Oct 09:00 am.. well I couldn’t wait for your reply and went ahead and tried booting up anyway.. and there was NO change in symptoms at all.. still see normal front panel LED HD Drive activity but zero video signal.. tried swapping from DisplayPort to HDMI with a different cable.. still see “no signal”, I have no SVGA port so I can’t try VGA, the new MB still has no POST beeps , but does have LEDs and the Dram and CPU LEDs cycle off but it hangs on the WHT VGA fail LED ON.. I’m thinking possibly a bad Corsair TX850/Power Supply.. even tho at the connector ends I read a good +12 and 5.2 VDC I think I have to swap it next or my monitor one.. then swap everything on the New MB back .. What say ?

🖐 what do I do with the old drivers from the old motherboard ? I just committed to a mother board , cpu upgrade🙁 I’m scared

I might try this.

Hi, i just have changed my motherboard, ram and cpu but my pc dont want to start on windows... only in the bios. The pc recognize my hard drive but he dosn’t want to start with windows. Any advice please ?

so if i have all of my data on a ssd and changed my motherboard cpu and gpu will i have to go through the installation process again. its like windows 10 ssd in a new computer. will it boot up to my desktop? Please answer. Thank you. :)

How would you install the drivers if you don’t have a disk slot?

Like I always say, making mistakes is the best way to learn. Atleast you didn't fry an expensive component lol

tomorrow i will change my old a320m motherboard to b450m only the motherboard what should I do?

Ive only had an issue doing this once, it was windows 11. Going from an asus 7th gen board to an 11th gen board. Completely corrupted the drive and it wouldnt even boot in the old board. About to so a swap today from 11th gen to 13th and im hoping it goes well Lol

What could be the problem, replaced the motherboard and cpu i5 6500 to an i7 10700kf with a z490. Rgb is on fan spinning , keyboard responds to caps lock, but I have no display, and windows is not booting up. Yes my display cable is in my gpu.

Planning to follow this guide, just waiting for my ryzen 5 2600 and tuf b450m board, hopefully it will work fine :) Ps: my os is just crack version not quite sure if i will encounter any issue with that Old unit Ryzen 3 2200g K4 B350 asrock Os win 10

man for so old it sure is pretty clean inside!

when I go from my lga 1151 and i7 9700k to an lga 1200 and 10900k will I just have to put in the new board, put everything in and it will work or will I have to do any additional steps

I'm still wondering, I am changing my motherboard, cpu and ram, and i dont know if i would have to reinstall/repurchase windows 10?

I just replaced my motherboard, cpu, and ram, and i plugged in my ssd and hdd with my current windows installation on the ssd. I boot up the computer and it goes straight to bios and doesn’t load windows. How do I make it boot to windows instead of the bios since windows is already on my ssd.

I've Linux mint alongside win 10, do you think it'll be same for it as well?

So if I get a new motherboard will all my files still show up after booting like desktop icons etc?

If I get a new mother board and use a different hard drive will it boot correctly

Hypothetically, if I was to upgrade to a new mobo, new RAM and swap from an AMD CPU to an intel..could I still do this method?

Wouldn’t remnants of old drivers from the previous motherboard remain on the computer and interfere with the new drivers and motherboard? I’m interested in performing a similar procedure and I’d like to get my facts straight before I go through with it.

I have a dell pc. Windows 10 64b OS. I guess I will be fine replacing the motherboard right?

Is this possible without a disc reader?

I did the exact same thing and windows didn't boot, and even with a clean install it says The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error. Idk what to do

Is it best to stick with the same architecture? Intel to Intel; amd to amd…

This is what I was hoping as I just bought a new motherboard and I really did not want to have to reload windows or all the other software on the hard drive, but...wouldn't there be a lot of junk files/drivers now left on the hard drive or is this not something to worry about?

I want to try to change my motherboard but my OS is only windows 7 because my motherboard is not windows 10 ready. I'm currently using asus a58-k and I want to upgrade to A88-plus without reformatting my pc but I am afraid I might fail that my current os won't detect or wont upgrade the driver. can you help me please? or any advice. I don't have OS installer of bootable flash drive, '(

If i do this will it wipe my harddrives, when i install the new mobo?

32 bit whats that , lol bet you died inside , nice vid by the way , will definately keep an eye on your channel..

i want to get an new motherboard and CPU.but i am still not sure if i have to reinstall windows 10 pro.

Question is .... is the motherboard same type same brand or different in this video?

I am curious as to how you installed an amd cpu in a lga 1151 mb!?!

Okay so what I understand is.. I have a gigabyte b450 mobo with a 3700X I just picked up a sealed gigabyte x570 and I can just drop my CPU and Operating M.2 SSD and it's gonna work with having to go in and set stuff up ? My current B450 is running windows 10 64bit

Question now is does windows 11 work the same way

This was posted 2 years ago? why do I feel like this is a 7 years ago upload CD-ROM drive? what the heck?

I´m gonna upgrade mine aswell, do you think buying an extra harddrive for backing up all the data is worth it?

Wow just wow

but do i need to format my system ?

I watched the video but can someone just summarize what I need to do in order to replace my motherboard without having to rebuy windows.

i know i just watched the video but to be 100% clear...I don't have to wipe my drive at all to install window? Everywhere I see people recommend wiping your drive. I'm doing a complete pc upgrade; new cpu, gpu, motherboard, and psu. Same SSDs and HDD.

Props to the Dale flag

Just to clarify, if I switch motherboard, cpu, gpu, and ram, this will work? Just making sure before I screw something up lol
