Unless you really reduced the drivers available on your system or you're going to a lesser system (64 -> 32bit, or something like that), I would expect the system to simply boot. If not, you only need a live-cd/usb/... and rebuild the kernel and any drivers your new system needs. It's not MS Windows that might try to load incompatible drivers and ends up with a blue-screen. Personally, however, I tend to use a new system as an excuse to clean up my install and start from scratch. Especially as I always tend to pass my old system on to a family member or friend.
