That may not be true.
Your operating system has the required drivers installed for the old mobo, they are detected and installed by the XP setup.
This mobo hasn't, and this could be the cause of any problems your having.
I say this as in the past when a mobo has been changed XP wont boot, requiring a reinstall to get the system up and running again, and this is what your system may require.
