That's a tricky one

1 - If the mobo isn't changing and just the processor is being upgraded, it should.
2 - If the whole system is changing, then even if it did work I would suggest a reformat to make sure it uses the proper drivers for your system.
3 - Backup your information to a CD, DVD, External HDD, etc.

I think there's also something wrong with your keyboard, so replace that too! ;-)

But seriously: the only problem that I know of, is if you configured a special (binary) driver for your graphics card. If you have done that, change it back to generic, and put in your harddisk in the new machine. I expect it will work.

I would have done a fresh install, and what happened to your keyboard?

there is nothing wrong with my keyboard it is just me typing fast and not watching.

/home/<name>/.mozilla I think, it has a cache folder in there should be it.
