I cant decide weither or not to reinitialize my HDD after I swap the CPU, what do you think I should do ?

If you're talking about just upgrading the CPU, why would you need to reinitialize the HDD?

???? Re-initialize you HDD? I don't even know how you would do that let alone what it is, just swap the CPU, no OS or other hardware will care.

Im not really sure why. Perhaps Ill just defragment the HDD.

Good idea.

Does reinitilize = reformat??? If so, you shouldn't need to do that for a CPU upgrade... A motherboard upgrade maybe, but you should be ok just swapping out the cpu's.
