it should be fine, as long as the other mobo was also an intel chipset.
It probably wont work with out a fresh format, and if it does, it may not work properly (the windows boot, not the HDD)

I always start fresh, but you can try and put it in, should just give you an Error if it dosnt work. No Harm No Foul.
yea it was for my p5n-e, but i had nvidia driver in that HDD , an dim my sig rig i have no nvidia , u guys thing i may have a conflict on the drivers?

sorry for the double posting

if i reformat how i do it? can i plug it to another computer and reformat from there, if so , what program should i use ?

hey madd but i have no where to put it

And vista is not like XP that will reformat every time u do a fresh install
See less See more
Plug the HDD into another system then run the vista disk it will give you the option to format
See less See more
ok i tried plug and play , but , no luck , so i have to do a fresh install.

thank u guys
