How to upgrade Motherboard without reinstalling Win 8

[mandarpalshikar]

Guys... I'm planing to change my mobo. So please give me ideas to make it effortless. I don't want to loose all my settings or do re-installation of all software and games by re-installing my Windows 8 Pro.

Just change the motherboard then your window will be deactivated but don't panic their .just call customer care and do a telephonic activation. That how you can change your hardware.

I own a legal copy of Win 8.

For system stability reasons do a fresh install on the new motherboard period!

i know you have a legit version, my method involved some non-legit tricks (and i learned that you can activate over phone!!! wow!!)
