Upgrading motherboard - quick question

[Jiniix]

I'm gonna be upgrading from an ASUS P8P67 to an ASUS Z75/77 motherboard. Haven't chosen which, but I figure the chipset is the same on all makes.

The question is:

What do I do about chipset drivers?

I've never upgraded a motherboard without re-installing Windows as well, so I don't know what's gonna happen.

Do I have to uninstall the previous chipset drivers or is it capable of removing/updating the old P67 drivers to the new Z75/Z77?

Back up your data that you want to keep, switch out the motherboard, and turn it on. In many cases (for myself) Windows boots up fine. You should still replace the original drivers, but you shouldn't have to reinstall Windows if you are trying to avoid that. I would, though.
