    I currently have a E6400 Conroe Duo in here and just got a Q6600 Quad. Can I simply swap out the Duo for the Quad without having to reinstall XP? I know the mobo will work with it. I feel kinda silly asking the question, but I've simply never upgraded a CPU with the same socket before. =P

    Mobo: GA-965P-DS3
