First of all, hello everyone.
I want to upgrade my Processor and Motherboard, they seem to be my oldest parts still in my computer.
I have this Processor-

and this Motherboard-
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813186141
Now, I am thinking of buying these two:
Processor-

Motherboard-
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131366
My questions are...
Are they compatible?
Do I just replace the parts, just as I would with RAM, and then turn on my computer again and will everything work fine? or do I have to reinstall my whole Hard Drive or Windows, or something?
I'm running Windows Vista 32-bit. Let me know any other information you might need from my computer.
Thanks
