Hello, I'm facing some issues with my PC and plan to replace the motherboard and processor. Since I'm upgrading to an AMD system from Intel, I understand I need to perform a fresh Windows installation. Can you guide me through the process? Should I keep the SSD unchanged until I assemble the new PC, then reinstall Windows from a USB drive afterward? Is there a specific method for formatting the SSD and installing Windows that works best? Thank you for your help!

The Windows Reset will perform a clean install. I would simply restart Windows myself.

You can try this option or create a Windows installation drive (media). https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software.../windows10

Assuming both will yield identical outcomes, I think I'll handle it via Windows (it seems simpler). Thanks!
