First of all I want to say thank you for watching and helping me on this thread.

My m5a97 pro mobo is broken and I want to change it with M5A97 EVO R2.0 but I wont buy new cpu and other components I will use old ones. To I have to clear something or what I have to do overall when I install my old stuff on new motherboard? I got old bios installed but EVO use other bios on same CPU. So, what I have to do with this new mobo but other old components?
 
Solution
All you should have to do is take them out of your old mobo and install them on your new one. The different revision should work perfectly well with all of your components.

But can I flash new bios on my old cpu where is already flashed other bios?

Old mobo bios is 1006 same cpu
New mobo bios is 0302 same cpu

( Maybe bios numbers are wrong but something like that )

I'm not sure I totally understand your English. Remember the BIOS is for your motherboard, not your CPU, so your CPU should not be affected. Update the bios for your new motherboard if you want when you get it up and running. the bios on the newer mobo will be a lower number because it's a newer product, that's all.
