You can do it _only_ if you prep your system first! It seems Mobos aren't too pnp. Window's boot wont get far enough to reinstall the correct drivers if you switch mobos, but you can remove the mobo drivers before you switch mobos. Then it should install the new ones on the next boot.

Do some googleing. Not to long ago my friend's mobo died and had the responsibility of fixing it. But i couldn't save the install (under the time constraint) because his other mobo was dead.

I read numerous ways of stripping the mobo drivers so switching them was possible. Though, i cant recite thorough instructions. It may be as simple as booting in Safe Mode and removing them in the Device Manager.

Depening on your drivers, it may work without any labor from you. But likely not.
