you are always going to have problems replacing the mb if the chipsets are different. when xp calls the chipset drivers and its the wrong mb = blue screen. I skimmed through the entire thread so it looks like your up and running again.
typically in this scenario i would at the very least go with the same mtherboard vendor asus with asus, intel with intel etc etc. that will get you in the right direction.
Check out acronis imaging over norton ghost. they have an add on call universal recovery where you can call specific mother board drivers or whatever else drivers you need. doesnt sound like you need help anymore but in the future thats probably why you had difficulty. yes bios causes a problem but chipset is a bigger problem.
