Hi all,
a simple question I think. I'm going to upgrade my old P2 233 Intel
motherboard with a 'slightly' newer P3 733 motherboard. As I'm sticking
with a Pentium processor, I think I don't need to do anything like
switch the kernel as it'll still be the same one. All that I will
probably need to do is sort out any onboard stuff like graphics, sound, etc.
Does this sound correct, or is there something that I've forgotten about?
Bruce
