I've this just this succesfully a couple of times... the only thing I had to
worry about was the PnP settings in the BIOS, which altered the order in
which the NICs were found and set up, and some other BIOS settings which
were drastically different from the previous board/CPU.
I don't believe you should need to re-install unless you've tried changing
the BIOS settings to the point of insanity, and still haven't gottten
anywhere.
As long as there is no real major hardware/driver conflict I would think all
should go well.
Mine, also, could be a uniquely easy case. I don't know.
