There are a lot of things that continue to bug me about Windows. For example - why does it blue screen when you change motherboards from Intel to AMD? Or even when you stay within the same processor, but change the chipset? Howe hard would it be to detect that the storage drivers have changed, and just use a generic one sp you can start windows? Windows has had this problem forever, and it still exists in Win 7.

Not sure what you are doing but last time I upgraded my desktop it was from AMD to Intel when I was still running XP and I simply plugged the HD in the new system and XP booted up just fine.

Maybe you are changing bios mode from IDE to ACHI which will break windows but there are ways around that.

yes, sometimes it works OK, and sometimes it doesn't. Buy why can't they just default to a Microsoft storage driver to at least let you in safe mode, and remove the Intel or AMD driver, or whatever it is that is making it imcompatible? I usually do a repair-install, but its still a pain.
