SysPrep on Windows 10?

DrewRockon

I recently changed the motherboard and cpu in my computer (to a gigabyte 990fx ud-3 and an FX 8350) I did not reinstall windows after the hardware change which according to the internet was a bad idea. I have seen a huge performance hit to many games most notably gw2 which is heavily CPU bound. I used to run gw2 on almost max settings + GemFX with a solid 45+ fps. Now I don't even break 12 fps without overclocking. I believe there may be some driver conflicts between my old hardware and the new. My question is will sysprep fix any driver conflicts that may be causing the issue and is it safe? I've read that it works differently on windows 10 than in previous versions as it is not longer a cmd prompt command but an actual GUI program.

Has anyone used sysprep on a windows 10 machine? Should I be worried about losing what I have or do I need to do a backup first? Are there any potential pitfalls to using sysprep I should be aware of?

 

Thanks for your help!!

Disregard. Read some other posts on the forums and apparently this mobo has some issues with the way the pci slots sit. Reseated my 970 and everything is good
