Motherboard Replacement and Vista

Howdy, Folks,

When putting a new motherboard in a system, in previous versions of Windows
it was possible to do a repair installation by booting from the CD. This
prevented losing system settings and having to reinstall applications. See:

However, there is no similar article for Vista and, before I replace a
motherboard, I wanted to know if anyone has followed a similar procedure
with Vista.
