Replacing faulty MB questions.
Hi guys,
I'm having to replace my current mb, (Asus M4A88T-V EVO) with another, Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 970. I have a few questions before I buy it.
1. The mb I am using has onboard gfx although I use a gfx card, the new one doesn't. What would happen if the gfx card failed would I be able to see a lower res screens at all for emergency work?
2. I am running Win7 Home Premium 64bit atm and would like to just install the drives onto the new board. Will this work ok without changing the current install, apart from having to load new mb drivers of course?
3. The new mb has the UEFI BIOS the old one not. Would I have any problems booting with this as I have read some reports of the system not posting?
Thanks for any suggestions, I do build my own systems but am not sure on these points, age is creeping up on me
