Asked By CuriousCat42 On

I'm planning to upgrade my motherboard and CPU, and I'm curious about how it will affect my Windows 11 installation. I know my license is linked to my Microsoft account, but what about the drivers? Will everything work seamlessly right away, or do I need to uninstall certain drivers before making the switch? Any tips would be appreciated!

You're in luck—modern versions of Windows are pretty good at handling driver changes when you swap out hardware. However, there's still a chance something might go awry, so make sure you back up your important data just in case. Having a Windows installation disk ready could also save you if you need to do a full reinstall later on.
