In one of the recent thunderstorms a brief surge killed my motherboard. I mentioned it earlier, so enough about the past. Today I installed my new motherboard, chip and RAM (4gigs! w00t!) and I figured I was in for a reformat because Windows never deals well with a new mobo.
Vista, however, took it all in stride; found new hardware, installed drivers and was good to go. That’s very nice. Very, very nice.
The fly in the ointment is that my wireless LAN card doesn’t work now and the handy manufacturer’s program is 32bit. I’d rather have to fix that than reinstall everything, that’s for sure.
UPDATE: My bad, card wasn’t securely seated. Tada.
