Windows 7 - Replacing all components apart from HDDs

| | Replacing all components apart from HDDs Hey guys I've found this guide Windows 7 Installation - Transfer to a New Computer for changing all my components except HDD. My question is, I currently use my install as an HTPC. If I use the sysprep method, will the codecs (ffdshow etc) work correctly afterwards, or will I have to go through installing them all again? I understand graphics drivers will need re-installing. Thanks. |

| | every codec you should ever need. CCCP - Combined Community Codec Pack or the player that doesn't even neeed them to work. VideoLAN - Download official VLC media player for Windows I would reinstall them either way. The active x controls can get a little weird when you mess with ...well just about anything. I know people have things against codec packs but I've personally been using cccp for years without complaint. |

| | Yeah, well I definitely need the codecs packs. I use Sharks007 at the moment. I don't want to use VLC as I'm using Windows Media Center Does the CCCP make Windows Media Center play MKVs etc? |

| | yes. There is also the approach of just grabbing the specific codecs you know you need. This site is a good resource for that: Codecs.com :: Download latest audio codecs, video codecs, codec packs and tools, FREE! note: their download rates kind of suck because it's a free service but everything works. |
