Need a new motherboard, can I save my OS?

I have an old msi 7005 motherboard in one of my puters and I'd like to replace it as the caps are beginning to look crusty.

How can I install a new mobo and keep my Winxp pro? No one sells that mobo anymore so I can't do a direct replacement.

thanks

what you can do is uninstall everything in device manager. every single driver, then shut down and install the new hardware. then you may be able to keep the install, but then comes the activation issue...
