Hi everyone, I am planning on building a new PC. The only things I’m planning on transferring from my old build are my hard drives. Will I have any problem putting my OS drive with Linux mint right into a whole new PC? My other question is if I use my current Linux OS drive do I have to remove the old GPU and CPU drivers? I’m sticking with an nvidia card but I will be switching from Intel to AMD. I know in Windows you have to use software to fully remove GPU drivers before using a new one.
No, it should work fine, but a backup is always a good idea.
It’s not like Windows where it has to install a bunch of new drivers via 7 reboots. It just sees the new hardware and uses the correct drivers.
