Multiple OS motherboard upgrade.

I am getting ready to upgrade my computer and Im going from a AMD(Barton) with NForce board,to a Intel865 Albatron/2.8 P4.My computer has 3 operating systems.
I think it would be in my best interest to do the enum key refresh in 98,but I have a multiboot of 2k and xp pro.
In what order should I do the repairs on xp and 2k?and what about the enum key refresh?TIA

What order did you install the operating systems in? That's the order I would do the repairs/enum in. I've never actually tried it, but it makes sense to me to do it that way. You may not even have to do a repair on xp, i've had mobo migrations without anything except reactivation.

With 2K/XP, you can just remove everything in Device Manager, remove all of service packs. This is all explained in Tips and Tricks section, I believe GLC wrote it.
