Good. No problems at all.

Move the hard drive over and prepare for the wonderful world of reboots as windows detects your new hardware. Also, have the driver disks for any new hardware ready so you can install it.

After Windows detects all of the motherboard resources and starts installing individual hardware, I have found it best to cance it all initially. Then go into the device manager, remove an item and reboot. Windows will redetect it and ask you to install it. Install that one device then reboot. Repeat this until all devices are installed. You can do it however you want, but installing one device at a time with reboots in between seems to work much better than trying to install all the devices at the same time with no reboots.
