REplacing motherboard with refurbished motherboard

Hi Keith,

to keep license you need to replace motherboard by warranty. Sorry that are the license terms. If this will be warranty replacement please remember technician to do steps necessary for license keeping.

 

Motherboard replacement

Well there is GA-F2A88XM-D3H (rev. 3.0) Mobo being MATX which is fine but to make the most of a system especially old ones then full factor will usually mean the most features hence upgrade path. G1.Sniper A88X (rev. 3.0) Overview | Motherboard - GIGABYTE Global best board for his socket but also rare and hard to get there is other options though. 6800k is also FM2 he has a whole range of FM2+ to go to as we are talking about a hybrid socket. The next thing is win 11 compatibility as already mentioned if you care about that then that is the only issue and if you don't there is nothing stopping legacy systems going to 11, OP did ask about replacing their existing motherboard with more of the same which initially suggest that they may be looking for a cheaper option. Not trying to downplay anyone else as new system is a valid suggestion as we are several gens over now but if they were asking for a new computer build then that would of been the context of the thread from premise, hence why i relayed my response as i have.

 

Password incorrect after replacing motherboard.

Hi,



Thank you for being part of Windows 10 family.



Sorry to know that you are facing issues with Windows 10.

There is some confusion about hardware changes on a Computer that will impact their free upgrade activation status. To clarify, the ONLY hardware changes that can negatively impact a customer’s activation status once they have upgrade are changes to the:

• CPU
• TPM
• Motherboard replacement

If you replaces the Motherboard they may have to re activate but this will not require a purchase of Windows 10.

You can try to perform a clean install.

I would suggest you to create a ISO file from the below Microsoft Help Article and try to reinstall Windows 10.
