I currently am running a bh6 with win2k and really don't want to have to reinstall. I just got a cusl2-c BP (i know bfd) I'm running win2k with sp2 and i want to switch everything over with out a reinstall, btw my c drive is 2 maxtors on a promise raid card and that is my win2k install.
thanks for your answers.
 
I doubt it, I tried to change from an ABIT BH6 to a Abit BE6-II-v2 BOTH BX chipsets and I had to reinstall within days of the MB swap...

Give it a go, but backup EVERYTHING and expect to have to reinstall...
 
If you're running win2k as 'standard pc' and set about the same options in the BIOS of the new mobo (pnp OS: NO, etc.) you could be successful, she will prolly need to restart a few times and ask for a sh*tload of drivers, but it can work.
 
Thanks for the help!
I have managed to get everything working fine save for the apci features. when i set to stand by it shuts my system down. that's the last thing to get fixed!
